The equation used above is y-intercept form.
ex. y = mx + b
Whatever is in front of the x is your slope.
Your slope is -3
Best Answer:

to multiply fractions you simply take the denominator of both fractions
and multiply them, do the same to the numerator, and you have your
answer.
ex.
2 5 10
-- * -- = ----
4 8 32
then, of course, you would need to simplify.
so the answer is
10(/2) 5
-------- = -----
32(/2) 16
To multiply mixed numbers, you need to convert them to improper
fractions, multiply and then convert them back to a mixed number. For
example:
2 1/2 x 5 1/3 = 5/2 x 16 /3
numerator 5 x 16 = 80 denominator 2 x 3 = 6
so now you convert 80/6 into a mixed number
80 / 6 = 13 and 2/6 or, reduced, 13 1/3. </span>
