Find the slope of the graph of the following:
9x - 3y =15
a. -3
b. 3
c. -1/3
d. 1/3 ****
the answer is 3. remember kids keep taking shortcuts
Cheating is the way of life!!! Keep on yall!!!!

What is the simplest form of 384B negative 2C3
To find the slope of the graph of the equation 9x - 3y = 15, we need to rewrite it in the slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b. Once we determine the coefficient of x, denoted by m, we can identify the slope.
To do the conversion, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. Let's start:
9x - 3y = 15 (Original equation)
To isolate -3y, we subtract 9x from both sides:
-3y = -9x + 15
Next, divide every term by -3 to solve for y:
y = -9x / -3 + 15 / -3
This simplifies to:
y = 3x - 5
Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m represents the slope. In this case, the coefficient of x is 3, so the slope of the graph is 3.
Out of the options provided, b. 3 is the correct answer.
Nope.
Ax+By=C
has slope -A/B
You found -B/A
to see, stop trying to take shortcuts and just work it out
9x-3y = 15
3y = 9x-15
y = 3x-5
see?
