Question

3) What is the slope of the line with the equation of y = − 2/

3 x that passes through the point (2, 1)? A) − 2 /3 B) − 3/ 2 C) 2/ 3 D) 3/ 2

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = -
`(2)/(3)` x ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -
`(2)/(3)`
