Question 831703: using the slope of the line 5x+3y+9=0, what steps could be used to move from one point on the line to another point on the line. Answer by josgarithmetic(39618) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve for y. The slope is .
Pick any point on the line. Vertical change is 5 units down, and horizontal change is 3 units to the right. That is also a point on the line.
Alternatively, pick any place or point on the line; move 5 units up, and move 3 units to the left. This is also a point on the line.
