Question 268601: slope of the equation of a line
x-6y=1
Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Rearrange the given equation so that it is in the "slope-intercept" form:
y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
.
x-6y=1
-6y=-x+1
6y=x-1
y = (1/6)x - 1/6
.
Slope (m) is then 1/6
