SOLUTION: For the equation y-3=7/13(x-4) is the slope 7/13 because when you do basic moves & then distribute you get y=7/13x-(4)7/13. The 7/13 is next the x and whenever you have a y= equati

Question 253622: For the equation y-3=7/13(x-4) is the slope 7/13 because when you do basic moves & then distribute you get y=7/13x-(4)7/13. The 7/13 is next the x and whenever you have a y= equation you can always say that the slope is always going to be next to the x but only in an y= equation. So is the slope 7/13

You are correct. The slope is m=7%2F13 since the final equation is y=%287%2F13%29x%2B11%2F13

For the equation y-3=(7/13)(x-4) is the slope 7/13 because when you do basic moves & then distribute you get y=7/13x-(4)7/13. The 7/13 is next the x and whenever you have a y= equation you can always say that the slope is always going to be next to the x but only in an y= equation. So is the slope 7/13
