Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m=slope and b=yintercept so

3x-7y=11
add 7y to both sideds
3x=11+7y
subtract 11 from both sides
3x-11=7y
divide both sides by 7
3/7x-11/7=y
y=3/7x-11/7

slope is 3/7

You could change the equation to slope intercept form:
3x - 7y = 11
-7y = 11 - 3x
y = (11 - 3x)/-7
y = 3/7 x - 11/7
The slope would be 3/7

Which can also be found by using -A/B, A being 3 and B being -7

Can someone explain why A is the right answer to this question? I'm unsure of how to work out this problem.

So firstly, we have to find the radius of the circular garden before finding the circumference (the amount of fencing needed to surround the garden). To find the radius, use the area formula ( $A=\pi r^2$ ), plug in the area of the garden (36 ft^2) and solve for r as such:
