## Diana97 Group Title What is the slope of the line 2x - 5y = -10? -5/2 5/2 2/5 -2/5 none of the above 2 years ago 2 years ago

First you have to set it up in y=mx+b form

2. saifoo.khan Group Title

Solve for y. You will get something like: y = mx + b After comparing you will see that "m" is the slope.

3. waterineyes Group Title

Slope is given by negative of x coefficient divided by y coefficient...

4. Diana97 Group Title

is equal to c

5. waterineyes Group Title

Where??

6. Diana97 Group Title

2/5

7. Diana97 Group Title

im righ or wrong

8. Diana97 Group Title

plz

9. Lulu212 Group Title

im pretty sure your right because -2/-5 id 2/5 so yes your right

10. waterineyes Group Title

Absolutely right..

11. waterineyes Group Title

Remember when you are given with one equation of Line: That is : $$ax + by = c$$ Then, $Slope = \frac{- (coefficient \; of \;x)}{Coefficient \; of \; y}$
