Answer:
slope = - 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
9x + 4y = 8 ( subtract 9x from both sides )
4y = - 9x + 8 ( divide through by 4 )
y = - 2.25x+ 2 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 2.25
