17. What is the slope of the line given by the equation 2x + 9y = -18?
A.-2
B.-
c. -
D.2
E.9

slope = -

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

2x + 9y = - 18 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

9y = - 2x - 18 ( divide all terms by 9 )

y = - x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -

step-by-step explanation:   divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal

it would still be 193

if divide by 100 then 1.93
