Find slope

Question

x+7 y=14
x+7y=14
x=2

check this problem see if I got it right.

Answer 1

I don't think you did...

Here's what I would do:

x + 7y = 14
Subtract x from each side.

7y = -x + 14

Divide both sides by 7.

y = -1/7x + 2

That means the slope is -1/7.

Write another response back if you need me to explain in more detail or if you have any questions.

Answer 2

I agree with Cassie.

Answer 3

How did you get -1/7 I am still confuse
