What is the slope of the line with equation y=-5x

1 answer:

3 0

An equation in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In this case, our y-intercept is 0, so we're left with y = -5x.

-5 is in the place of m, which means -5 is our slope.

The slope of y = -5x is -5.

Answer:

$\frac{-117}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Change the mixed fractions into improper fractions:

$-3\frac{1}{5} + (-8\frac{1}{2} )\\= \frac{-16}{5} - \frac{17}{2}$

2) Multiply the first fraction by 2/2 and the second fraction by 5/5 in order to create common factors on the denominator (You can do this because you are essentially multiplying by one, for example 2/2 = 1):

$\frac{-16}{5} *\frac{2}{2} - \frac{-17}{2} * \frac{5}{5} \\ =\frac{-32}{10} - \frac{85}{10}$
