Question

Find the slope of the line 7x-4y=10

Answer 1

The slope is
`m=(7/4)`

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

`y=mx+b`

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

In this problem we have

`7x-4y=10`

so

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

`4y=7x-10`

`y=(7/4)x-(10/4)`

`y=(7/4)x-(5/2)`

The slope is
`m=(7/4)`
