Question 850633: Find the slope of the line x+2y=1
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x+2y = 1
2y = 1 - x
2y = -x + 1
y = (-x + 1)/2
y = (-x)/2 + 1/2
y = (-1/2)x + 1/2
The equation is in the form y = mx + b, where m = -1/2 and b = 1/2
So the slope is -1/2
