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 a line perpendicular to x - 3y equals 9?
x-3y = 9 -3y = -x+9 y = 1/3x -3 Perpendicular slope = -3
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 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
What is the equation of a line in point slope form that passes through 5 and 1 and has a slope of two thirds?
The equation is (y - 1) = 2/3*(x - 5) That can be simplified to 3y - 3 = 2x - 10 or 3y = 2x - 7
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
Find the slope of the line 4x-3y equals zero?
7
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 6x 3y equals 8?
-2 or written as a slope - 2/1
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to x - 3y equals 9?
x-3y = 9 -3y = -x+9 y = 1/3x -3 Perpendicular slope = -3
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.
What is the slope of the line represented by 2x - 3y equals 4?
2/3
What is the slope of the line 2x plus 3y equals 5?
- 2/3
What is the slope of a line -4x 3y equals 1?
If: -4x+3y = 1 Then: 3y = 4x+1 And: y = 4/3x+1/3 which is now in slope-intercept form
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 the line whose equation is 3y equals 2x-1?
2/3.
What is the slope for 10 equals 3y plus 24?
The slope of 10=3y+24 is 0, because we would rewrite this equation:10=3y+2410-3y=24 (subtract 3y from each side)-3y=-10+24 (subtract 10 from each side)-3y=14 (combine like terms)y=-4 2/3 (divide each side by -3)this shows that you have no slope, as you have no 'x' value, the slope is 0.
