If: 3x+y = 16
Then: y = -3x+16 whereas -3 is the slope and 16 is the y intercept
what is a slope
The slope equals 3
The slope of y is -3x, hope that help
3X - 2Y = - 16 - 2Y = - 3X - 16 Y = (3/2)X + 8 ==============slope intercept form
3x + 5y = 16 5y = -3x + 16 y = -3/5 x + 16/5 By the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope b = y-intercept Therefore, the slope is -3/5.
no
y = 3x + 6slope = 3
3
-3
3x - 4y -16 = 0 Algebraically rearrange to to make '4y' the subject. Hence 4y = 3x - 16 ( Note the change of sign, on taking the '4y' across the equals to replace the zero. ). Divide both sides by ;4; y = (3/4)x - 16/4 y = ( 3/4)x - 4 Hence the slope is ' 3/4 ' and the y-intersect is '-4'. NB For all straight line of the form y = mx + c 'm' is the slope , and 'c' is the y-intersect. All you need to do on being given linear equations of the form px + ny + c = o or px + c = ny or px + ny = c etc. is to algebraically rearrange into the form of y = mx + c , making sure you change the signs correctly, and then dividing both sides by the coefficient of 'y' .
Point slope equation: Y=3X+12
-3/5
