what is the slope and y intercept of 5x-4y=20
Answer:
First of all rewrite the given equation into the standard slope intercept form of a line, that is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the slope of the equation.
5x - 4y = 20
Subtract 5x from both sides.
==> 5x - 4y - 5x = 20 - 5x
==> -4y = 20 - 5x
Divide both sides by -4
==>
==>
Which can be written as,
, which is of standard form
So, slope of the given equation is,
and y intercept is
