Question

What is the slope of a line represented by the equation y = (5/4)x - 1?

Answer 1

The slope would be `m=5/4`

Explanation:

The slope-intercept formula of a line is represented by the equation

`y = mx + b`

In this equation the `m=` the slope and the `b=` the y-intercept

Therefore, for the equation given

`y = 5/4 x - 1`

The slope would be `m=5/4`
