Answer:

Explanation:

Solve the given 3x + 5y = 2 for y. This will automatically indicate the slope of the line.

Subtracting 3x from both sides of this equation, we get:

5y = -3x = -3x + 2.

Dividing both sides by 5 yields y = (-3/5)x + 2/5.

The slope of the given line is -3/5. The y-intercept of this line is (0, 2/5).

Next time, please share the answer choicess. Thank you.
