Question

What’s the slope of the given line

8x-10y=20

Answer 1

`(4)/(5)`

Explanation:

Put the equation into slope intercept form
`y=mx+b`

m = slope

b = y intercept

`8x-10y=20`

Add 10y on both sides

`8x=20+10y`

Subtract 20 from both sides

`8x-20=10y`

Divide both sides by 10

`(8)/(10) x-2=y`

Simplify

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

As we can see
`(4)/(5)` is m so it is the slope
