Given the Standard Form of the linear equation below, solve for y in terms x and state the slope of the line.

−16x + 4y = 20
Slope =

Answer 1

y = 4x + 5

Slope = 4

Explanation:

solve for y in terms x

−16x + 4y = 20

add 16x left n right:

16x − 16x + 4y = 16x + 20

4y = 16x + 20

divide left n right by 4:

y = 4x + 5

Slope = 4

Answer 2

The equation given is:

-16x + 4y = 20

Slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b

-16x + 4y = 20

+16x +16x

-----------------------

4y = 16x + 20

/4 /4 /4

--------------------

y = 4x + 5

The slope in the equation is:

4
