Answer:
D. 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the x-coefficient when the equation is solved for y.
2x -5y = 9 . . . . . . . given
-5y = -2x +9 . . . . . .subtract 2x
y = (-2/-5)x +9/(-5) . . . . divide by -5
y = 2/5x -9/5
The coefficient of x is 2/5. That is the slope of the line.
The slope is 2/5.
x=-27, y=-15

Yes, they are equivilant
5(3m+2p)-4m = 13p+11m-3p
Distribute 5: 15m+10p-4m = 13p+11m-3p
Combine like terms: 15m+(-4m) = 11m ; 13p+(-3p) = 10p
11m+10p = 11m+10p
m=70/2=35
n=(360-70*2)/2=110
