Question

find the slope? is it x?
x+4y=8

4y=x+8

.......................

Answer 1

You have to divide both sides by 4 to isolate y, then the slop will be the coefficient of x.

Answer 2

so whats the slope?

is it 2?

Answer 3

I didn't notice until now, but oyu moved the terms wrong.

original:

x+4y=8

-> 4y = -x + 8

Divide each side by 4 to isolate y:

y = -(1/4)x + 2

In the form y = mx + b (y-intercept form), m is the slop. So slope = -1/4.
