Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

-2/35

Step-by-step 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.

   $\sf \dfrac{2}{7}x + 5y = 15$

           $\sf 5y = \dfrac{-2}{7}x + 15\\\\ y =\dfrac{-2}{7*5}x + \dfrac{15}{5}\\\\ y = \dfrac{-2}{35}x + 3\\\\ \boxed{\bf Slope = \dfrac{-2}{35}}$
