What is the slope of the line 4x + y = 3?

Answer 1

The slope of this line is #-4#

So before we start finding the slope, we need it in slope form which is #y=mx+b#. So to do that, we need to subtract 4x from both sides which gives us:

#y=-4x+3#

So whatever the number in font of the x is, that is the slope. The slope of this equation is #-4#

To find the slope of the line 4x + y = 3, rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). Subtract 4x from both sides to isolate y, which gives y = -4x + 3. The slope (m) is the coefficient of x, which is -4. Therefore, the slope of the line is -4.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
