what is the slope of the equation 6x + 2y = -10 what is the final answer​

Sagot :

The slope is -3.

We need to find the slope of the following equation:

⇒ [tex]\sf 6x+2y=-10[/tex]

First, we need to convert this equation into slope-intercept form, which is:

y = mx + b

where:

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

To convert, first subtract 6x from both sides.

[tex]\sf 2y=-10-6x[/tex]

[tex]\sf 2y=-6x-10[/tex]

Next, divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\sf y=-3x-5[/tex]

The slope is the number in front of x. So for this equation, -3 is the slope.
