Or you can do the easy way
convert to slope intercept
y=mx+b
m=slope
get 1y all by itself
8x-4y=8
minus 8x both sides
-4y=-8x+8
divide both sides by -4
y=2x-2
y=mx+b
slope is 2
the hack way is
for an equatoin in standard form
ax+by=c
slope=-a/b
slope=2
if you want to graph 2 points and do it the long way, here it is
if x=0, y=-2
if y=0, x=1
(0,-2) and (1,0)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(0-(-2))/(1-0)=2/1=2
slope is 2
2(10) +5(5)= 45
b=10 a=5
Plug in the values b and a.

Answer:
x=3/8, y=-7/8. (3/8, -7/8).
Step-by-step explanation:
y=-5x+1
y=3x-2
----------
-5x+1=3x-2
-5x-3x+1=-2
-8x+1=-2
-8x=-2-1
-8x=-3
8x=3
x=3/8
y=3(3/8)-2=9/8-2=9/8-16/8=-7/8
