Question

Find the slope of the line: x+4y+8=0

Answer 1

Use the slope-intercept form y=mx+b to find the slope m


m= -1/4

Answer 2

Answer: -1/4

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, so make it that form.

x+4y+8=0

x+4y=-8

4y=x-8

y=-1/4x-2

The slope is the m in the equation, so -1/4 is the solution.
