Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by Answers.com means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to be absolutely sure about the answer.If your question was about ax + by = (+ or -) c, then the slope is -a/b provided that b is non-zero. If the question is about anything else, please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "times", "divided by", "equals",

How do you find the x and y intercept in a slope problem?
usually the format is ax plus or minus ba is the slope and b is the y intercept
Explain how to determine the y-intercept of the line whose equation is Ax plus By equals C?
Ax + By = CSubtract 'Ax' from each side:By = -Ax + CDivide each side by 'B' :y = -(A/B)x + C/BThe slope of the line is -(A/B) .The y-intercept is (C/B) .
What slope is 7x plus 5y equals 35?
-7/5 For equations in Standard Form (Ax + By = C), slope equals -A/B. Or you could put the equation in Slope-Intercept form (y = mx + b) by solving for y and then finding the slope (m).
Why is one degree polynomial equation ax plus by plus c equals 0 called lenear equation?
Yes. This is because the rate of change is equal to a (i.e. the slope is a). a never changes, so its linear.
Given the equation of a line how is the slope calculated?
If the equation of a line is in the form ax + by + c = 0 then the slope of the line will be -a/b.
