What is the slope of the line 4x – 2y = 5?

Slope-intercept form:

The equation of line is given by:

         .....[1]

where,

m is the slope of the line

and b is the y-intercept.

As per the statement:

Given the line:

Subtract 4x from both sides we have;

Divide both sides by -2 we have;

On comparing with [1] we have;

m = 2

therefore, the slope of the given line is, 2

2425

step-by-step explanation:

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

step-by-step explanation:

formula

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)

a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

here p=2 and w = 2+3

therefore,

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)
