@fallenangelorchid pls help
OpenStudy (kamibug):
4x - 8y - 16 = 0
You can change this to slope-intercept form...
Add 16 to both sides.
4x - 8y = 16
Subtract 4x from both sides.
-8y = -4x + 16
Divide both sides by -8.
y = 1/2x + 4
Now it's in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope! :)

She deserves a medal :D

she does and she got one

so the slope \[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]

hey can you help me with one more
OpenStudy (kamibug):
Sure, and I messed up, sorry, Lol, the last term is -2 xD Not 4. :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[y-1=\frac{ 4y-2 }{ 3 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
we have to solve it any ideas
OpenStudy (kamibug):
Multiply both sides by 3.
3y - 3 = 4y - 2
Add 3 to both sides.
3y = 4y + 1
Subtract 4y from both sides.
-y = 1
Multiply both sides by -1.
y = -1
