The equation 3x-5y=35 represents a linear relationship between x and y.what is the rate of change of y with respect to x?

Answer 1

3x -5y = 35 solve for y

5y = 3x-35

y = 3x/5 -7

coefficient of the x term = slope = dy/dx = derivative of y with respect to x = rate of change = rise over run

= 3/5 = 0.6
