QUESTION

How do you find the slope of the line whose equation is ##2x – 4y = 10##?

The of the line is ##1/2##.

The equation of a line in is ##y=mx + b##, where ##m## is the slope, ##b## is the y-intercept, and ##x## and ##y## are a point on the line.

In order to determine the slope from the given equation, do the following:

##2x - 4y = 10## (Subtract ##2x## from both sides.)

##-4y = -2x + 10## (Divide both sides by -4.)

##y = (-2x)/(-4) + (10)/(-4)## (Simplify.)

##y = 1/2 x - (5)/(2)##
