This equation is written in standard form, so we need to change it into slope-intercept form.

3x = -y - 5

3x + y = -y + y - 5

3x + y = -5

3x - 3x + y = -5 - 3x

y = -5 - 3x

y = -3x - 5

The slope is classified as "m" in this type of equation, so, the slope is -3.

Best of Luck!

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate the Y

2. once it looks like this y+3x=-5, you subtract y on both sides.

3. you get y=-3x + 5. the slope being -3.
