Question

What is the slope of the line 3x -9y =4?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -9y =4

To find the slope get the equation in slope intercept form ( y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

Subtract 3x from each side

-9y = -3x+4

Divide each side by -9

-9y/-9 = -3x/-9 +4/-9

y = 1/3x -4/9

The slope is 1/3 and the y intercept is -4/9

Answer 2

∆ Anwer :-

Here,

3x -9y =4

To find the slope get the equation in slope intercept form ( y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

Subtract 3x from each side

-9y = -3x+4

Divide each side by -9

-9y/-9 = -3x/-9 +4/-9

y = 1/3x -4/9

The slope is 1/3 and the y intercept is -4/9
