Question 1 options:

1)

negative five thirds

2)

negative three fifths

3)

three fifths

4)

five thirds

Respuesta :

Answer:

slope = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

5x - 3y - 12 = 0 ( subtract 5x - 12 from both sides )

- 3y = - 5x + 12 ( divide all terms by - 3 )

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
