Answer:

slope = 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3y-12=0

-5x            -5x

-3y = -5 -12

(-3y = -5 -12) -1

3y=5+12

divide by 3 to get y by itself

y= 5/3 + 4

Answer:

m=-5/-3=5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line:

in standard form: ax+by+c=0

the slope is m=- \frac{a}{b}  

For your line equation: 5x-3y -12 = 0

the slope is m=- \frac{5}{-3} = \frac{5}{3}
