After solving the equation for y: 10x-11y=242
to get slope-intercept form, you could then see that the slope is negative and the graph would be decreasing.
Responses
True; you would be subtracting 10x, which gives you negative 10 as the slope
True; you would be subtracting 10x, which gives you negative 10 as the slope
False; you would be subtracting and then dividing by a negative to get a positive slope

False; since the equation is in the form 10x - 11y = 242, when solving for y to put it into slope-intercept form, you would be subtracting 10x and then dividing by -11, resulting in a negative slope.
