Find the slope of the line.

4x - 5y = 18

1 answer

To find the slope of the line, let's rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m represents the slope.

4x - 5y = 18

Subtract 4x from both sides:

-5y = -4x + 18

Divide both sides by -5:

y = (4/5)x - 18/5

The equation is now in slope-intercept form, where the slope, represented by m, is 4/5.
