-5 right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wrong

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the slope is the coefficient of x - (the number that multiplies x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The slope is m in the equation y=mx+b Where is m?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

y = mx + b - the slope is m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would mean 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8
