For the life of me, I can't figure how to come to that answer. Is this just a mistake in the book? Or can you help me to see this answer?
P.S. how do I access the "thank you form"?

Check the problem and the answer very carefully, as often one looks at the wrong answer by mistake.
IF the function is 2y=10x-8, dividing by 2, the slope-intercept form is y=5x-4. It can be nothing else.
Thank you very much. It's the second error I've found. Not bad Counting the volume of material. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
