Question

What is the slope of the graph of 4x - 8y = 11? A. 1/2 B. 2 C. -2 D. - 1/2

Answer 1

Hey there.. Lets solve this problem with steps

→ Basic Standard Formula
y = mx + b

→ Step 1 ( taking x to right side or arranging the equation in standard form)
-8y = -4x + 11

→Step 2 ( keeping y at it's own place by dividing both sides by -8)
y =$\frac{-4}{-8}$ x - $\frac{11}{8}$
y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - $\frac{11}{8}$

So, m = slope in standard formula
So, m = $\frac{1}{2}$

Correct Option is A.

Hope this helped you..  :)
