What is the slope of the line represented by the equation?
C. 4/5

Answer:

Option (3) is correct.

Slope of the given equation [tex]y=\frac{4}{5}x-3[/tex] is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation [tex]y=\frac{4}{5}x-3[/tex]

We have to find the slope of the above line.

Way 1)

An equation of the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing we get  [tex]m=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Way 2)

Slope can be find by evaluation derivative of the given line with respect to x,

Derivative [tex]y=\frac{4}{5}x-3[/tex] with respect to x, we get,

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Thus, slope of the given equation [tex]y=\frac{4}{5}x-3[/tex] is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Thus, option (3) is correct.
