Question

What is the slope of 2/7x +5y=15

Answer 1

-2/35

Explanation:

Slope y-intercept form : y = mx + b

Here m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Write the given equation in slope y-intercept form.

`\sf (2)/(7)x + 5y = 15\\\\`

`\sf 5y = (-2)/(7)x + 15\\\\ y =(-2)/(7*5)x + (15)/(5)\\\\ y = (-2)/(35)x + 3\\\\ \boxed{\bf Slope = (-2)/(35)}`
