Question

What is the slope of the equation y= 5/4x -7/4? –7 -7/4 5/4 5

Answer 1

The equation of a line is given by y = mx + c; where m is the slope.
The given equation is y = 5/4 x - 7/4.
Therefore, the slope is 5/4.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct

$\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

The equation of line is given by:

$y = mx+c$          ....[1]

where,

m is the slope of the line

c is the y-intercept.

As per the statement:

The equation of line is given as:

$y = \frac{5}{4}x -\frac{7}{4}$

On comparing the given equation with [1] we have;

⇒$m = \frac{5}{4}$ and $c = -\frac{7}{4}$

Therefore, the slope of the given equation is, $\frac{5}{4}$
