Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
the customary way to determine the slope of a linear equation such as this one is to solve the equation for y:
-3x-5y=15 becomes -5y = 15 + 3x after 3x is added to both sides of the original equation.
Solving both sides of this latest result by -5 results in
y = -3 - (3/5)x
The coefficient of x (which here is 3/5) is the slope of this equation.
