Question

Given the linear equation 3x + y = 5, find the slope of its graph.

- 3

- 5

3

5

Answer 1

Solve for y in order to write it in the form y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept
y = -3x + 5
Knowing the form, the slope of this line is -3 or in your problem, the first one

Answer 2

thank you !

Answer 3

we also can find by derivation.
\[y=-3x+5\]
\[dy/dx=-3\]
