Question

16. x + y = -3
how do i find the slope?

Answer 1

rise over sun or sun over rise which one is it?

Answer 2

or y=mx+b

Answer 3

b is the y intercept and m is the slope which is u have to find it

Answer 4

so the answer is -1

Answer 5

@katragaddasaichandra What? Did you even convert it yet?

Answer 6

I did

Answer 7

Ahhhh my bad, yes it is -1.

Answer 8

it is -1

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

Because after subtracting x on both sides it is -x, which is the same as -1x which is our mx.

Answer 11

u r right

Answer 12

My bad, I apologize.

Answer 13

can one of you guys show me a demonstration

Answer 14

Let's say we had: 3x + y = 6

We have to isolate y, so we move 3x to the other side while also removing it from the left. We do this by subtracting 3x from both sides so:

3x - 3x + y = -3x + 6 (-3x + 6 is the same as 6 - 3x, but we are doing it this way to go with y = mx + b).

Now we have: y = -3x + 6

So our slope is -3 and our y intercept is 6.
