What is the slope of the linear function 10x+2y=6? Use any method of linear functions to solve.

1 answer

To find the slope of the linear function 10x+2y=6, we need to rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope.

10x + 2y = 6
2y = -10x + 6 (subtract 10x from both sides)
y = -5x + 3 (divide both sides by 2)

So the slope of the linear function is -5.
