After solving the equation for y: 10x − 11y = 242 to get slope-intercept form, you could then see that the slope is negative and the graph would be decreasing.

Question

After solving the equation for y: 10x − 11y = 242 to get slope-intercept form, you could then see that the slope is negative and the graph would be decreasing.

True; you would be subtracting 10x, which gives you negative 10 as the slope
False; you would be subtracting and then dividing by a negative to get a positive slope

Answer 1

After solving the equation for y: 10x − 11y = 242 to get slope-intercept form, you could then see that the slope is negative and the graph would be decreasing.

False; the slope would be positive since you are subtracting the x term from y and then dividing by -11
