What Is the Slope of the Line Described by the Equation 3x - 15y + 7 = 0?

[JBemp]

Homework Statement

find the linear fuction ( in swedish its called the riktningskoefficient i think ,dunno if there the same thing am taking the text from a swedish book and translating to english) for the stright line 3x-15y+7=0

Homework Equations

Am unsure on how to proceed but I think i should divid all the turns by 15 or 3 to get ether 3x or 15y to just x or y, and seeing as its a graph getting y alone would have to be the easyest way to go

The Attempt at a Solution

3x-15y+7=0
15y=3x+7
y=0.2x+0.47

y=(3/15)x+7/15 is how I would leave it.

The linear function, or riktningskoefficient, for the given straight line is y=0.2x+0.47. This means that for every increase of 1 unit in the x-direction, there will be an increase of 0.2 units in the y-direction. Additionally, the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,0.47). This information can be useful in graphing the line and making predictions about the relationship between x and y values. To find the riktningskoefficient, you can rearrange the equation to solve for y, as shown in the attempt at a solution.
