Question

Determine the slope of the line 5x-3y-12=0

Answer 1

Answer:

slope of the line=5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The general slope-intercept form of a line is given by,

y=mx+c

where, m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept

$5x - 3y - 12 = 0$

$- 3y = 12 - 5x$

$3y = - (12 - 5x)$

$3y = 5x - 12$

$y = \frac{5x - 12}{3} = \frac{5}{3} x - 4$

Here, m=5/3
