3x+y=15
First convert the equation into slope intercept form. y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
3x+y=15
Subtract 3x from both sides
y=-3x+15
Here slope, m=-3
Answer: Slope is -3. Option C is correct

Answer: Slope is -3. Option C is correct
slope intercept form is y = mx + b
so you must isolate the y first by moving the x (and anything attached to it) to the other side
3x (-3x) + y = (-3x) + 15
y = -3x + 15
The slope is m, which is next to x
-3x is what you are looking at
-3 is your slope
C. is your answer
