What is the slope of 6x + 3y =15?
2 answers:
Answer:
<h2>The answer is - 2</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is y = mx + c
where
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
To find the slope we must first write the equation in the general equation above
That's
6x + 3y = 15
<u>Make y the subject</u>
Send 6x to the other side of the equation
3y = - 6x + 15
<u>Divide both sides by 3</u>
We have
y = - 2x + 5
Comparing with the general equation above
Slope / m = - 2

Steps:
1. Draw a line connecting the point to the center of the rectangle
2. Then construct a perpendicular bisector to the line drawn in step 1
3. Place the compass on the midpoint of the line, adjust its length to reach the end point, and draw an arc across the circle
4. Where the arc crosses the circle will be the tangent points. So connect the endpoint to the tangent point
