Answer:
m = -3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
slope form is y = mx + b and we are solving for m, the slope
first, isolate y on one side by moving x to the other side:
5y = -3x - 2
second, divide everything by y, so that y does not have a coefficient
y = -3/5x - 2/5
m = -3/5
Answer:
y=-3/5x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to subtract 3 from both sides. Then you divide 5 from both sides.
3x + 5y = -2
-3x -3x
5y = -3x - 2

5 5 5
y = -3/5x - 3
