Algebra.Com's Answer #44283 by venugopalramana(3286)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x+5y=1 \n" ); document.write( "FIRST PUT THE EQN. IN STD. FORM \n" ); document.write( "Y = MX + C \n" ); document.write( "THAT IS KEEP ONLY Y..[NOTE ONLY +1*Y IT SHOULD BE] ON LHS AND TRANSFER X AND CONSTANT TERMS TO RHS. \n" ); document.write( "THEN M THE COEFFFICIENT OF X IS THE SLOPE AND CONSTANT TERM IS THE Y INTERCEPT OR CALLED THE INTERCEPT IN SHORT \n" ); document.write( "HERE WE GET \n" ); document.write( "5Y=-3X+1 \n" ); document.write( "Y=-3X/5 +1/5 \n" ); document.write( "HENCE M= SLOPE = -3/5 \n" ); document.write( "AND INTERCEPT = 1/5 \n" ); document.write( "4x-5y=2 ....SIMILARLY \n" ); document.write( "M=4/5......INTERCEPT = -2/5 \n" ); document.write( "2x+3y+5=0 \n" ); document.write( "M= -2/3..INTERCEPT = -5/3 \n" ); document.write( "Then instructions says to find the slope of the line. \n" ); document.write( "I tried working these problems but I am not fully understanding what to do first.
