What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y= 4/5x - 3
4/5 is the slope. Any number multiplied by x in slope-intercept form is the slope.
Answer:
The slope of the given equation is \(\frac{4}{5}\).
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
\(y=\frac{4}{5}x-3\) ....(1)
The slope intercept form of a line is
\(y=mx+b\) .... (2)
Where, m is slope of the line and b is y-intercept of the line.
on comparing (1) and (2), we get
\(m=\frac{4}{5}\)
\(b=-3\)
Therefore the slope of the given equation is \(\frac{4}{5}\).
