When that equation is graphed, it produces a straiught line. The slope
of the line is 5, and the line intersects the y-axis at y=6.

a = slope b = intersept

So:

slope = 5
intersept = 6

The slope of the line is $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

Explanation:

Given that a coordinate plane with a straight line passing through the points $(-4,2)$ , $(0,0)$ and $(4,-2)$

We need to determine the slope of the line.

The slope of the line can be determined using the formula,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Since, the points $(-4,2)$ , $(0,0)$ and $(4,-2)$ lie on the straight line and the slope of all the points in a straight line have the same slope.

Hence, let us consider the points $(-4,2)$ and $(0,0)$

Let us substitute these points in the slope formula, we have,

$m=\frac{0-2}{0+4}$

Simplifying, we get,

$m=\frac{-2}{4}$

Dividing, we get,

$m=-\frac{1}{2}$

Hence, the slope of the line is $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

BaLLatris [955]

Say you have the equation 5(5x+7)=155
First you multiply 5 by everything in the parenthesis so you get 25x+35=155 then subtract 35 from both sides and get 25x=120 then 120 divided by 25 equals 4.8 so x=4.8
