Question

What is the slope of the line described by the equation y+1=−3x?

Answer 1

-3

Explanation:

Answer 2

The slope of the line is
`m=-3`

Explanation:

For a linear equation of the form

`y = mx + b`

the slope of the line is the constant m

in this case we have the equation

`y + 1 = -3x`

Solving for y we have:

`y = -3x -1`

Then
`m = -3`

The slope of the line is -3
