Question

Find the slope of the line y = 1/8x - 1.

Answer 1

Answer: The slope is (1/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has the form:

y = a*x + b

where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

in our function, we have:

y = 1/8x - 1

so here (1/8) will be the slope and -1 will be the y-intercept.

Answer 2

The slope of the line is 1/8.

The slope is always attached to the x.

Hope this helps!!
