Question

Find the slope of the line y =negative fraction numerator 2 over denominator 3 end fractionx.

  1. -fraction numerator 2 over denominator 3 end fraction    
  2. 0    
  3. fraction numerator 2 over denominator 3 end fraction    
  4. fraction numerator 3 over denominator 2 end fraction    

hintHint:

intercept form of a line equation
y = mx + c
when intercept = 0 that's mean line goes from origin
it's equation becomes y = mx

The correct answer is: -fraction numerator 2 over denominator 3 end fraction


    fraction numerator negative 2 over denominator 3 end fraction space i s space t h e space c o r r e c t space c h o i c e
w e space k n o w space t h e space i n t e r c e p t space f o r m space o f space a space l i n e space
y space equals space m x space plus space c
w h e n space i n t e r c e p t space c space equals space 0
e q u a t i o n space y space equals space m x space plus space c space b e c o m e s
space y space equals space m x space.... space left parenthesis a right parenthesis
c o m p a r e space e q u a t i o n space a space w i t h space g i v e n space e q u a t i o n space
y space equals space fraction numerator negative 2 over denominator 3 end fraction x
w e space g e t space m space equals space fraction numerator negative 2 over denominator 3 end fraction
s o space s l o p e space equals fraction numerator negative 2 over denominator 3 end fraction space
