Answer:

The slope of this line is -1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of this line, we need to solve for y. Then we look for the coefficient of x.

-48 = 2x - 8y

2x - 48 = -8y

-2/8x + 48/8 = y

y = -1/4x + 6

The slope is m=1/4.

Here's how to solve...

Isolate y for -48 = 2x-8y:

2x-8y = -48

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2x-8y-2x = -48-2x

-8y = -48-2x

Divide both sides by -8:

-8y/8 = -48-2x/8

y= 1/8(2x+48)

y=1/4x+6

Line equation form is y=mx+b, in which the slope is m.

m=1/4

Hope this helped! :)
