How do you find the slope of y = -5x+2?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You're looking right at the slope.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The slope is the coefficient of x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What number is in front of x?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The number -5, right?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The slope = -5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Your equation is in the form y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.\r
