Answer:

gradient = $\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )

Given

4y - 5x = 2 ( add 5x to both sides )

4y = 5x + 2 ( divide the terms by 4 )

y = $\frac{5}{4}$ x + $\frac{1}{2}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with gradient m = $\frac{5}{4}$

4-4[6+2n]=-28 I need help with this

kobusy [5.1K]

Multiply the term in parentheses by its coefficient:

$4(6 + 2n) = 4 * 6 + 4 * 2n = 24 + 8n$

$4 - (24 + 8n) = -28$

$4 - 24 - 8n = -28$

Combine like terms:

$-20 - 8n = -28$

Add 20 to both sides:

$-8n = -8$

Divide both sides by -8 to get n by itself:

$n = 1$

The value of n is 1.
