Explanation:

Given.

- 15-x = - 5y

5y = x + 15

y = ( x + 15) 5

y = x / 5 + 3

comparing the given equation with y = mx + c Then

Slope (m) = 1/5

Hope it will help :)

equation of the line formula : y = mx + c

════════ ∘◦❁◦∘ ════════

Answer : ⅕

════════════════════

-15 - x = -5y

-15 -1x = -5y

(-15 : -5) - (1:-5x) = y

3 - (-⅕x) = y

3 + ⅕x = y

3 + ⅕x = y

y = ⅕x + 3

#So m (slope) is
