SOLUTION: I need to find the slope (and I tried to solve): 5x-6y=30 5x=30+6y /6y= /6y 5x/6y=30 so the slope would be x=+5; y=+6 ? Thanks!!!

Question 432746: I need to find the slope (and I tried to solve):
5x-6y=30
5x=30+6y
/6y= /6y
5x/6y=30
so the slope would be x=+5; y=+6 ?
Thanks!!!

I need to find the slope (and I tried to solve):
5x-6y=30
Solve for y
-6y = -5x + 30
y = (5/6)x - 5
Slope = 5/6, the coefficient of x
