Question

What is the slope of a lone represented by the equation2y-x=-4

Answer 1

slope =
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y= intercept )

Given

2y - x = 4 ( add x to both sides )

2y = x + 4 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y =
`(1)/(2)` x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m =
`(1)/(2)`
