Answer:

<u>Slope</u>- -5/2 <u>Y Int.</u>- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first need rto put the equation in slope intercept form by subtracting -5x and adding 8 to both sides the you will divide two from each #. Then your equation will be in slope intercpt form which allows you identyify 4 as the y intercpt and -5/2x as the slope.

2y+5x-8=0

-5x +8 -5x + 8 = 2y=-5x+8

2y/2=-5x/2+8/2

y=-5/2x+4

What is the slope of line segment AB?<br> A) 2/3<br> B) 3/4<br> C) 4/3<br> D) -3/4

Lunna [17]

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1})$ and $(x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points through which the line passes.

According to the image we have:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (-5,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (3, -3)$

Substituting we have:

$m = \frac {-3-3} {3 - (- 5)} = \frac {-6} {3 + 5} = \frac {-6} {8} = - \frac {3} {4}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$

Answer:

$m = - \frac {3} {4}$
