What is the slope of the graph of \(6x + 12y = 7?\)

Asked by Grim4

Answer (2)

6 x + 12 y = 7 / − 6 x 12 y = − 6 x + 7 / : 12 y = 12 − 6 x + 7 ​ y = − 12 6 ​ x + 12 7 ​ y = − 2 1 ​ x + 12 7 ​ A n s w er : m = − 2 1 ​

The slope of the graph of the equation 6 x + 12 y = 7 is − 2 1 ​ . This means the line decreases by 1 unit for every 2 units it moves to the right. Therefore, the rate of change represented by the slope is negative half.
