Which equation has a slope

m=-34

Question 4 options:

A)

y=-34x+11

B)

y=43x-5

C)

y=34x+19

D)

y=-43x+17

First notice that each answer is written in slope-intercept form. The formula for slope-intercept is y = m (x) + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Knowing this, we can easily conclude that the correct answer is A) y=-34x+11 because - 34 is in place of 'm' in the equation y = m (x) + b. Anything that is before the 'x' and after the y = will be the slope.

All the choices are in the slope-intercept form where,

y=mx+b

so, the number before the x is the slope. The given slope is - 34. We just have to look for the - 34 number before the x. So mong the choices, it is the letter a choice that has the slope - 34. So the answer is A.
