Question

what is the slope of -x+5y=4
a.1/5 b.-5

Answer 1

first, move x to the other side

Answer 2

you have to turn it into the general formula
\(\Large{y = mx + b}\)

Answer 3

m = slope

Answer 4

can you do that? @rhondahyde16

Answer 5

i dont understand how to do it with the equation i got

Answer 6

you have -x + 5y = 4
move -x to the other side

Answer 7

so " 5y=4+x"..? :/
( stuff like this really confuses me)

Answer 8

yup

Answer 9

now we need to get rid of 5 from y

Answer 10

so divide 5 with 5y, x, and 4

Answer 11

i got 0.8, wrong? or no.

Answer 12

hm 5y/5 = y
x/5
4/5
so y = x/5 + 4/5

Answer 13

x/5 is equivalent to 1/5x

Answer 14

so y = 1/5x + 4/5

Answer 15

what's the slope?
