-8x - 5y = 18

Show all steps

Answer 1

-5y=18+8x
y=-18/5-8/5x
ur slope is -8/5

Answer 2

-8x - 5y = 18
+8 x +8 x

-5y = 8x + 18
/-5 /-5

y = -8/5x -18/5

SLope: -8/5

Answer 3

\[ -8x - 5y = 18 \]
\[\Rightarrow 5y = -8x -18 \]
\[\Rightarrow y = -\frac{8}{5}x -\frac{18}{5} \]

Thus slope = \[ -\frac{8}{5} \]

Answer 4

I got that one right also! :)
