Question

Determine the slope of the line graphed by 5y + 6x - 2 = 0. Type a numerical answer in the space provided. If necessary, use the / key to represent a fraction bar and leave your answer in terms of an improper fraction.

Answer 1

\[5y+6x-2=0\]Gather the x and y terms\[5y=-6x+2\]Divide by five\[y=(-6/5)x+2/5\]The slope is -6/5 (-1.2 in decimal form).

Answer 2

I don't like it when people just copy-paste the problem statement from their homework. The point of this is to help people understand, not to cheat on their homework. You could at least bother to type it out yourself.
