What is the slope of the line whose equation is 5y plus 6x - 2 equals 0?
You want to get your equation to the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. 5y+6x-2 = 0 5y = -6x+2 y = -6/5x + 2/5 Slope = -6/5 = -1.2 Y Intercept = 2/5 = 0.4
What is the slope of the line passing through points a 5 4 and b 0 3?
Slope = (change_in_y) / (change_in_x) = (4 - 3) / (5 - 0) = 1/5 = 0.2
How do you graph an equation written in y equals mx plus b form?
You draw a straight line through (0,b) which has a slope of m.
What is the answer to A plus B plus C equals A times B equals C?
A=0 b=0 c=0
Does y equals 5 have a slope?
Yes.Technically all equations in Slope Intercept Form have slopes and y intercepts.Slope Intercept Form is y = mx + b. (Where mx is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.)In your particular equation you can infer that 5 is the y intercept because you don't have your x variable there.The slope in this case is 0, meaning your line is going to be horizontal across point (0, 5). (The y intercept)Another way to write this equation which will make finding the slope much easier is y = 0x + 5. Because the equation says 0x, there is no need to put it.It's like the difference between just saying x or saying 1x.
