What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 2x+3y= - 12?

a) 3/2
b) 2/3
c) -2/3
d) -3/2

C).

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y= - 12

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercep

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+3y -2x = -2x-12

3y = -2x-12

Divide by 3

3y/3 = -2/3 x -12/3

y = -2/3x -4

The slope is -2/3

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

according to this law, when unemployment goes up by 1%, gdp drops by 2%. in the question, unemployment rate goes from 2% to 5%, meaning unemployment goes up by 3%, so the gdp drops by 6%. thus the effect is a drop in gdp by 6%.
