Question

What is the slope of the line given by the equation y=-3X?

A. 1/3
B. -1/3
C. -3
D. 3

Answer 1

`\boxed{-3}`

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation is determined by the constant equation
`y=mx+b` where
`m` is the slope and
`b` is the y-intercept of the line.

Therefore, we can use the equation given and implement it to find your slope.

`y=-3x`

Our equation does not have a y-intercept,
`b`. Therefore, it can just be inferred as
`+0`.

Because we do have a
`m`, we can then find out what our slope is:
`\boxed{-3}`.
