Answer: 0.875
Step-by-step explanation:
The best way to figure this out is to rewrite the equation in to standard slope form:
y = mx + b
this would look like...
5y = -7x + 35
divide 5 from each side of the equation...
-7
y = —— x + 7
5
find the values you can graph...
b = y intercept = the point in which the line "hits" the y axis on the graph. so count 7 points up and plot a point on the y axis at 7.
once you plot that, this is the starting point of your slope...
-7 (rise) count 7 down
m = slope = —— (over)
5 (run) count 5 to the right

<em>ANSWER: C</em>
The answer is 9 because you just see how far away the number is from 0
