What is the slope of the linear function 10x + 2y = 6

1 answer

To find the slope, we need to solve the equation for y in terms of x and rewrite it in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope.
Let's solve the equation for y:

10x + 2y = 6
2y = -10x + 6
y = (-10/2)x + 6/2
y = -5x + 3

The slope of the linear function 10x + 2y = 6 is -5.
