By rewriting the given line, we can see that the slope is equal to -1/2 or -0.5

<h3>How to get the slope of the given line?</h3>

Remember that a line is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line, which is the point where the line intersects the y-axis.

Then, we can rewrite our equation:

x + 2y = 16

to:

2y = 16 - x

y = (16 - x)/2

y = (-1/2)*x + 8

Comparing with the general line equation, we can see that the slope is -1/2.

Find an equation of the tangent line to the hyperbola y = 3/x at the point (3, 1).
Vesna [10]
Let's find the derivative of that hyperbola in order to find a slope formula to help us with this equation.  We already have an x and y value.  The derivative is found this way:  y'= \frac{x(0)-3(1)}{x^2} so  y'=- \frac{3}{x^2}.  The derivative supplies us with the slope formula we need to write the equation.  Sub in the x value of 3 to find what the slope is: y'=- \frac{3}{3^2}=- \frac{3}{9}=- \frac{1}{3}.  So in our slope-intercept equation, x = 3, y = 1, and m = -1/3.  Use these values to solve for b.  1=- \frac{1}{3}(3)+b  so b = 2.  The equation, then, for the line tangent to that hyperbola at that given point is y=- \frac{1}{3}x+2
