Question

What is the slope of the line `y=-5/6x + 7/6`?

Answer 1

The slop eis `-5/6`

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:

`y = color(red)(m)x + color(blue)(b)`

Where `color(red)(m)` is the slope and `color(blue)(b)` is the y-intercept value.

This equation is in the slope-intercept form:

`y = color(red)(-5/6)x + color(blue)(7/6)`

Therefore the slope is `color(red)(m = -5/6)`
