Question

5x + 4y = 8 Write in slope intercept form

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2 - 5/4x

or

y = 2 - 1.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept. Let's make this equation look more like that by isolating y on one side.

5x + 4y = 8

Subtract 5x from both sides.

4y = 8 - 5x

Divide both sides by 4.

y = 8/4 - 5/4x

y = 2 - 5/4x

Answer 2

Y=-5x/4+2 so the slope is -5x/4 and the y intercept is 2.
