उत्तर
Equation of any straight line in the form y = mx + c, where slope = m(co-efficient of x) and y-intercept = c(constant term)
x + 3y + 5 = 0
x + 3y + 5 = 0
3y = - x - 5
y = `(- x - 5)/(3)`
y = `(-1)/(3) x + (-5/3)`
Therefore,
slope = co-efficient of x = `-(1)/(3)`
y-intercept = constant term = `-(5)/(3)`.
