Find the slope of the graph of the following: 9x - 3y = 15

1 answer

To find the slope of a line, we need to rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope.

Starting with the given equation:

9x - 3y = 15

Rearranging, we isolate y:

-3y = -9x + 15

Dividing all terms by -3, we get:

y = (9/3)x - 5

Simplifying, we have:

y = 3x - 5

The slope of the line is 3.
