Question

find the slope of the line
4x-5y=-3
write answer in simplest form

Answer 1

What is slope-intercept form?

Answer 2

What do you mean?

Answer 3

The topic is finding the slope of the line from it equation

Answer 4

So not once during lecture have you discussed slope-intercept form?

Answer 5

How about point-slope form?

Answer 6

write it in the form y = mx+b

Answer 7

you mean rise over run?

Answer 8

@tomo saves the day. y = mx + b is known as slope intercept form. So perhaps you can try writing your original equation in terms of y and then determine your m.

Answer 9

ok so would it be 4/5 ?

Answer 10

it? Depends on what "it" is... What did you obtain for your slope-intercept equation?

Answer 11

would the slope of the line be 4/5

Answer 12

What did you obtain for your slope-intercept equation?
