Question

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the equation 8x-2y=5

A. The slope is -5/2 and the y-intercept is 4.
B.The slope is 5/2 and the y-intercept is 4.
C. The slope is 4, and the y-intercept is-5/2
D. The slope is 4, and the y-intercept is 5/2

Answer 1

the answer to your question is letter A

Answer 2

8x - 2y = 5

Rewriting it in the format y = mx + b

2y = 8x - 5
y = 4x - 5/2

So we can conclude that the slope is 4 and y-intercept is -5/2. (Answer C)
