Answer:

B) -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you have to write the equation in slope intercept form. To do that, you must have y be alone on one side.

2. move the 3x to the right side with the 5 by subtracting 3x from both sides. Since 3x will cancel on the left, y will be left alone. $y=-3x+5$

3. Now that you're in slope intercept form, you can find the slope easily. The slope will always be the number in front of x. In this case, the number in front of x is -3. Therefore, -3 is your slope!

Is this right? and do you use not use the x-intercepts?

Answer:

You are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept could be written the way you have or also it can be written as a point (-1, 0).

The y-intercept could also be written as a point (0, -2) But they are commonly written the way you have also.

So, the slope is -2. But just to be clear. That slope of -2 has nothing to do with the y-intercept of -2.

If you mark all the points on the line, to get from one point to the next point, you go down 2 and over (positive direction) 1. The down 2 in math is -2 and the over 1 is just 1. The slope is that ratio of -2/1.

Slope tells us if the line is going up or down, steep or flat, even horizontal. It was coincidence only that the y-intercept and slope were the same number.

Using the power law (x^27 ⋅ y)^1/3 equals x^9 ⋅ x^1/3.

Raising a number to the 1/3 is the same as cube rooting.

So the simplified response is x^9(cube root of y).
