Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a line has the equation 7x - 3y = 21, what is its slope?
  • Step 1: Start with the equation of the line: 7x - 3y = 21.
  • Step 2: Rearrange the equation to isolate y on one side. First, subtract 7x from both sides: -3y = -7x + 21.
  • Step 3: Now, divide every term by -3 to solve for y: y = (7/3)x - 7.
  • Step 4: Identify the slope from the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope. Here, the slope (m) is 7/3.
  • Slope of a Line – Understanding how to find the slope from the equation of a line in standard form.
  • Rearranging Equations – The process of converting an equation from standard form to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).
