3


Answer: 4/5

Answer 1

C. 4/5

Explanation:

Answer 2

The slope of the line
`y=(4)/(5)x-3` is
`(4)/(5)`

Explanation:

The given equation can be written as

`y=(4)/(5)x-3\hfill (1)` represents a line equation.

The general equation of the straight line is
`y=mx+c\hfill (2)`

where m is the slope and c is intercept

Comparing equations (1) and (2) we get slope
`m=(4)/(5)`

Therefore slope of the line
`y=(4)/(5)x-3` is
`(4)/(5)`
