Please help!!!!
1+y=-4/5x-2

Answer 1

Given that,

The equation is : 1+y=-4/5x-2

To find,

The slope of the line.

Solution,

We have,

`1+y=(-4x)/(5)-2`

Subtract 1 from both sides.

`1+y-1=(-4x)/(5)-2-1\\\\y=(-4x)/(5)-3` .....(2)

The general equation of line is :

`y=mx+c` ...(1)

where m is slope and c is y-intercept

Comparing equation (1) and (2)

m =
`(-4)/(5)` and c = -3

Hence, the slope of the line is
`(-4)/(5)`.
