What is the slope of the graph of 8x – 4y = 11?

Question

anonymous · Answer

2
write the equation in this format: $$y=mx+c$$

luigi0210 · Answer

Put it in slope intercept form: 
-4y=-8x+11
divide:
y=2x-11/4
so it is 2

I thight it was -2

jhannybean · Answer

$$\large 8x-4y=11$$ isolate the y by subtracting 8x from both sides. $$\large -8x+8x-4y=11-8x$$simplify$$\large 4y=-8x+11$$divide by 4 toput this equation in slope intercept form. $$\large y=mx+b$$$$\large y=-\frac{8}{4}x+\frac{11}{4}$$ the reduce and you'll find the slope using the slope intercept form.

lost your negative there

jhannybean · Answer

xD I did :(

y=-8/-4 -11/4 **

jhannybean · Answer

-_- -8/-4x*

anonymous · Answer

huh?

so 1/2, -2, 2, - 1/2

Look at her long and detailed explanation.. :P

It is 2 bud

jhannybean · Answer

I made a booboo. 

$$\large -4y=-8x+11$$$$\large y=\color{red}{\frac{-8}{-4}}x-\frac{11}{4}$$simplifying you would get your slope. the highlighted part.
