Question

45:PLEASE HELP Find the slope of the line described by: x-5y=-5

Answer 1

Side FE < Side DE < Side DF

Explanation:

The traditional approach here is to solve x - 5y = -5 for y and then read off the coefficient of x (which is the desired slope):

-5y = -5 - x, or

5y = 5 + x

Then y = (1/5)x + 1. The slope is (1/5).
