Answer:

The two points on a line such that it has a slope 5/8 is:

(0,0) and (8,5)

Explanation:

We know that the slope of a line is the ratio of the change in the y-coordinates to the change in the x-coordinates.

Now, let us assume that the equation of a line with slope 5/8 be given by:


y=(5)/(8)x

Hence, the point (0,0) lie on the line.

( since, when x=0 we have:


y=(5)/(8)* 0\\\\y=0 )

and also the point (8,5) lie on the line.

( when x=8 we have:


y=(5)/(8)* 8\\\\y=5 )
