Answer:

Slope = 1/4

Explanation:

Switch sides

2x - 8y = - 48 Subtract 2x from both sides.

- 8y = - 2x - 48 Divide by - 8

- 8 y / - 8 = (- 2x/ - 8) - (48/- 8)

y = x/4 - ( -6) Change the sign in front of the 6 Two minuses make a plus.

y = x/4 + 6

Definition and answer

The slope is the coefficient in front of the x.

Answer: Slope = 1/4
