Question

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the equation 8x - 2y = 5?

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Y=mx+b is the formula you need to get it in
start with the equation 8x-2y=5
so we want to get y by itself and everything else on the right side of the equation. to do this first subtract -8x from the left side and put it on the right side. this step would look like this:
8x-2y=5
-8x-2y=5 -> -2y=5-8x
-------------

next take and divide -2 from both sides of the equation. this would look like this:
-2y= 5 -8x
÷-2y=÷-2÷-2 -> y= -5/2 +4x
-------------------
so your new equation is y=4x-5/2 y=mx+b tells you the slope and y-intercept. m=slope and b=y-intercept. so in this case 4 is your slope and -5/2 is your y-int
