please check answer: Find the slope and the  y-intercept of the following line : − 4 x − 5 y  =  3 answer: Slope: 4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( 0 , -3⁄5 )

Nnesha (nnesha):

y=mx+b is a slope intercept form where m is slope and b is y-intercept you have t0 solve that equation for y

Nnesha (nnesha):

do you know how to solve for y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these are my options ... a) Slope: -4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( 0 , -3⁄5 ) b) Slope: 4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( 0 , -3⁄5 ) c) Slope: -4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( 3 , − 5 ) d) Slope: 4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( -3⁄5 , 0 ) e) Slope: -4⁄5 ; y-intercept: ( 0 , 3 ) f) None of the above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't b my answer?

Nnesha (nnesha):

ur equation seems incorrect . hmmm

Nnesha (nnesha):

or i guess it's like 4/5 and 3/5 right ?

Nnesha (nnesha):

45 or 4 over 5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 over 5

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

-5y = 4x +3 y = -(4/5)x + 3

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmm okay so how did you get ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so my answer would be E?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

CORRECTION y = -(4/5)x -3/5

Nnesha (nnesha):

show ur work plz how did you get that

Nnesha (nnesha):

would be great if we let her do some work and no it's not E.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

sorry Nnesha :-(
