Write the slope intercept form 5x+4y=8

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

y=5/4x−2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept

Find the values of m

and b using the form y=mx+b

.

m=5/4

b=−2

The slope of the line is the value of m

, and the y-intercept is the value of b

.

Slope: 54

Y-Intercept: −2

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
