Consider the equation 1.5x + 4.5y = 18
If we graph the equation, what is the slope of the graph?


A.3
B. -3
C. 1/3
D. -1/3
PLEASE HELP I HAVE 15 MINUTES

Respuesta :

Answer:

  D.  -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y. Your answer is the resulting x-coefficient.

  4.5y = -1.5x +18

  y = (-1.5/4.5)x +18/4.5

  y = -1/3x +4

The slope is -1/3.

__

You can see that the graph of it has a "rise" of -1 for each "run" of +3. Then rise/run = -1/3 = slope.
