Question

PLEASE HELP!!!! I WILL MEDAL AND FAN!!!!


What is the slope of the graph of the equation below? x+y=5

A -1
B 1
C -5
D 5

Answer 1

There isn't a graph to go with this

Answer 2

The idea is to solve for y


x+y = 5
x+y-x = 5-x ... Subtract x from both sides.
y+x-x = -x+5
y+0x = -x+5
y+0 = -x+5
y = -x+5


Your steps don't need to be this detailed. I put extra detail in there to be more formal

Answer 3

The equation `y = -x+5` is the same as `y = -1x+5`

Answer 4

The equation `y = -1x+5` is in the form `y = mx+b`
