What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to 2x-3y8?
If you mean: 2x-3y = 8 then y = 2/3x-8/3 and the perpendicular slope is -3/2
What is the slope of the line 9x - 3y equals 10?
In the equation y = mx + b, m is the slope. To convert 9x - 3y = 10 to y = mx + b: 9x - 3y = 10 Subtract 9x from both sides: -3y = -9x +10 Divide both sides by -3: y = 3x - 10/3 The slope of this line is 3.
What is the slope of the line 2x-3y equals 5?
start with 2x - 3y = 5 add 3y to each side, 2x - 3y + 3y = 5 + 3y :: 2x = 5 + 3y subtract 5 from each side, 2x - 5 = 5 - 5 + 3y :: 2x - 5 = 3y divide each side by 3, (2x - 5)/3 = (3y)/3 :: (2/3)x - (5/3) = y the slope is the coefficient of "x" when the equation takes the form y = mx +b Therefore, the slope of the line is 2/3, approximately 0.667
Which equation represents a line parallel t the graph 2x-3y equals 9?
-2X -3Y = 9 -3Y = 2X + 9 3Y = -2X -9 Y = -2/3X -3 This is standard form Y = mX + b where m = slope and b = y intercept since m = -2/3 any line with that slope is parallel. Y = -2/3X + b where b = ANY NUMBER
What is the slope of any line parallel to the line 2x-3y equals 7?
What is the slope of the line defined by the equation shown below? 5x + 2y = 10 Group of answer choices 2/5 5/2 -2/5 -5/2
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to 6x plus 3y equals -9?
6x+3y = -9 3y = -6x-9 y = -2x-3 Therefore the perpendicular slope is 1/2
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose euation is 5x plus 3y equals 8?
-5/3
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to 6x 3y-9?
If you mean: 6x+3y = -9 then the perpendicular slope works out as 1/2 or 0.5
The equation of a line is x Minus 3y Plus 2 Equals 4. Which line is perpendicular to this line?
x-3y+2 = 4 -3y = -x+4-2 -3y = -x+2 y = 1/3x-2/3 Slope or gradient of the perpendicular line is -3 Use y-y1 = -3(x-x1) to find the perpendicular equation
Find the slope of the line 4x-3y equals zero?

Which line has a greater slope y equals 3x or x equals 3y?
y equals 3x has the greater slope.
What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to 2x-3y8?
If you mean: 2x-3y = 8 then y = 2/3x-8/3 and the perpendicular slope is -3/2
What is the equation to a line that is perpendicular to the graph of 5 x minus 3 y equals 9 and the two lines intersect at x equals 15?
It is 3x + 5y = 155 The slope of the line 5x -3y = 9: 5x - 3y = 9 → 3y = 5x - 9 → y = 5/3 x - 3 → slope is 5/3 → slope of perpendicular line is -3/5 Intercept at x = 15 → y = 5/3 x 15 - 3 = 22 → equation of perpendicular line is: y - 22 = -3/5 (x - 15) → 5y - 110 = -3x + 45 → 3x + 5y = 155
What is the slope of the line 6x 3y equals 8?
-2 or written as a slope - 2/1
What is the equation of the line passing through the point -2 -3 and is perpendicular to the line 4x plus 3y -5 equals 0?
Perpendicular equation: 4x +3y -5 = 0 Perpendicular slope: -4/3 Slope of line: 3/4 Point of line: (-2, -3) Equation of line: y - -3=3/4(x - -2) => 4y - -12=3x - -6 => 4y = 3x -6 Therefore the equation of the line is: 4y = 3x -6 or 3x -4y -6 = 0
What is the slope of the line that is parallel to 6x plus 3y equals -9?
6x + 3y = -9 So 3y = -6x - 9 or y = -2x - 3 So the slope of the given line is -2 Therefore, the slope a any parallel line is also -2.
What is the slope of a line when you are given the equation 3y equals -3x - 5?
The slope of the graph of that equation is -1.
