Q. What is the slope of the line?\newliney+3=4(x+7) y+3=-4(x+7) \newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 4-4\newline(B) 7-7\newline(C) 37 \frac{3}{7} \newline(D) 34 -\frac{3}{4}
  1. Distribute 4 -4 to x x and 7 7 : Now, distribute the 4 -4 to both x x and 7 7 inside the parentheses.y+3=4x28 y + 3 = -4x - 28
  2. Subtract 33 to isolate yy: Next, subtract 33 from both sides to isolate yy on one side of the equation.y=4x283y = -4x - 28 - 3y=4x31y = -4x - 31
  3. Identify the slope: Now that the equation is in slope-intercept form, we can identify the slope directly from the equation.\newlineThe slope is the coefficient of xx, which is 4-4.
