What is the slope of the line shown below?
y=1/3x-3

slope=1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) and m always equals slope in that equation, so in your equation m=1/3, so slope=1/3

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9

or

step-by-step explanation:

we need to solve for 'x' the following equation:  

we have that:

⇒

⇒ ⇒

factorizing, we get that:

  ⇒

then, the solutions are: or
