Question

The equation of line L is 3x -8y+20 =0. find the gradie of L​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient of line is the slope of the line.

Slope-intercept form of linear equation is y = mx + b

"m" is a slope

"b" is y-intercept

~~~~~~~~~~

Solve standard form of equation 3x - 8y + 20 = 0 for "y"

- 8y = - 3x - 20

y = $\frac{3}{8}$ x + $\frac{5}{2}$

Gradient of line is $\frac{3}{8}$
