Answer:
- coefficient of x
- write the equation in slope-intercept form
- 35
Step-by-step explanation:
The value -105 is the coefficient of x.
The slope is most easily read from the equation when it is in slope-intercept form. In that form, the slope is the coefficient of x. You could say Kim forgot to write the equation in slope-intercept form.
When the equation is written in that form, it becomes ...
165 -105x +3y = 0
165 -105x = -3y . . . . subtract 3y
-55 +35x = y . . . . . . divide by -3
y = 35x -55 . . . . . . in slope-intercept form
The correct slope is 35.
