Hello!

The equation of this line is written in Slope-Intercept Form (y=mx+b)

where m stands for the slope and b stands for the y-intercept.

In Slope-Intercept Form, the slope of the line is the coefficient of x, and the y-intercept is the constant added to or subtracted from the slope.

In this case, the slope is


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{\displaystyle(4)/(5) }}}}

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions!
