The slope of the line represented by this equation is 4/5.


We know this because this line is in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept. Thus, we can conclude that the slope is 4/5, which means that for every 4 units the line moves up, it also moves 5 units over (because slope is defined as rise/run).


Hope this helps!
