Answer:

y= 4/5

Explanation:

Let's solve for y.

2x+5y=8+6x

Step 1: Add -2x to both sides.

2x+5y+−2x=6x+8+−2x

5y=4x+8

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5y/5 = 4x+8/5

y= 4/5x + 8/5

Answer:

slope=4/5

Explanation:

you need to get the equation into y=mx+b form

2x+5y=8+6x subtract 2x from both sides

-2x. -2x

5y=8+4x. now divide both sides by 5 to get y alone

y= 8/5+4/5x reorder

y=4/5x+8/5
