-48 = 2x - 8y
-24 = x - 4y
4y = x + 24
y = (1/4)x + 6

Slope of the line
1/4

The general equation of a line is written as:

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We need to write the equation given above in that said form to identify the slope.

<span>–48 = 2x − 8y
(8y = 2x + 48)1/8
y = 1/4x + 6

Therefore, the slope is 1/4.

Monica [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

a(n) = a +(n-1)d

a=-5

d=5

a(n) = -5 +(n-1)5
