Question

Find the slope of a line parallel to the graph of -3x - 5y = 6

Answer 1

if you solve that for "y", what does it look like?

Answer 2

can you put your eq in slope-intercept form please?

Answer 3

5y=-3x+6?

Answer 4

so how do you move that 5 to the other side?

Answer 5

subtract it?

Answer 6

you also dropped your negative signs

Answer 7

so let's take a step back

Answer 8

how do you get -3x to the other side?

Answer 9

add it?

Answer 10

ok and what does that give you?

Answer 11

Like the the equation or the answer?

Answer 12

when you add 3x to both sides, what is the result?

Answer 13

-3x-8y=9?

Answer 14

uhm... where did that come from?

Answer 15

idk im confused tbh..

Answer 16

ok, so let's try it this way. you have \[-3x - 5y = 6\] when we add 3x to both sides it looks like this before simplifying \[3x-3x - 5y = 6+3x\]

Answer 17

what is 3x-3x?

Answer 18

0

Answer 19

so what does the eq above simplify to?

Answer 20

what's the next step?

Answer 21

divide by 6?

Answer 22

I just want the simplification

Answer 23

what do you write after 3x−3x−5y=6+3x
