Question

State the slope and the y-intercept for the graph of the equation
5x+3y=0
please help .. im so confusedd..

Answer 1

first put what you have in slope intercept form

Answer 2

i dont even know what that means...

Answer 3

y= mx+b
were m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Answer 4

put it in terms of Y and then we will talk

Answer 5

@katelm123 so m=3y and = 0 ?

Answer 6

first
solve for y

Answer 7

i dont know how ??

Answer 8

Taliea, first you want to separate the x and y. Can you do that?

Answer 9

if i knew what the x and y were i would ?

Answer 10

5x is the "x" and 3y is the "y"

Answer 11

5x+3y=0
-5x -5x
3y=-5x
dive by 3 on both sides
y= -5/3x

Answer 12

so the slope is -5/3 and the y intercept is 0

Answer 13

@katelm123 I don't think she understands that yet, we need to take it slower.

Answer 14

ok lets see...

Answer 15

oh @katelm123 i kinda understad from you working it out :)

Answer 16

1.put equation in slope intercept form first
2 y=mx+b
3. m=slope , b equals y intercepy

Answer 17

^

Answer 18

Oh okay, I was getting worried about how to teach you it xD So do you understand everything now?

Answer 19

yes i do thanks :D

Answer 20

i dont trust you do this!
5x-2y=4

Answer 21

Haha, I agree, for your sake show us you can do that.

Answer 22

3y=-5x+o
y=-5/3x+0/3 ,y=-5/3X+0
WHERE ARE YOU M AND CONSTANT?

Answer 23

stahhhp dwel i have a vague suspicion if she can isolate for y or not

Answer 24

dan your kind of annoying but the answer is 5/2?

Answer 25

no -_-

Answer 26

Aww but Dan is trying to help you learn it. And it is not 5/2 =P

Answer 27

dan is doing the correct thing

Answer 28

i tried -.- math is hard ok .

Answer 29

Show us your work, I'm sure we can find the problem.

Answer 30

draw like this
