Answer:

The slope of the equation is 1/2

Explanation:

First, you have to make y as the subject:

4x - 8y = 11

-8y = 11 - 4x

Eliminate the coefficient of -8y to make it into y

-8y = 11 - 4x

y = 11/-8 + (-4/-8)x

y = 1/2x - 11/8

Given that the equation is y = mx + b and the slope is m:

m = 1/2
