Rene5x - 4y = 18
Algebraically rearrange into the straight form ' y = mx + c'.
Where 'm' is ther slope/gradient and 'c' is the y-intercept.
4y = 5x - 18
Divide both sides by '4'
y = (5/4)x - 18/4
y = (5/4)x + 9/2 ( 4 1/2 = 4.5)
So the slope is '5/4' and the y-intercept is 18/4 = 9/2 = 4 1/2 = 4/5 ( depending on how you have drawn the y-axis.

What is the y-intercept for 5x-4y equals 18?
Transform the equation into slope-intercept form: y = mx + b. The intercept is b. 5x - 4y = 18 -4y = 18 - 5x 4y = 5x - 18 y = 5x/4 - 18/4 so the y-intercept is -18/4 or -4.5
What is the xintercept for 5x - 4y equals 18?
To find the x-intercept for 5x - 4y = 18, plug in a 0 for the y value and solve for x. 5x - 4(0) = 18 5x = 18 x = 18/5 or 3.6 The line will hit the x-axis at (3.6,0)
What is the ordered pair of 5x equals 4y equals -20?
5x=4y=-20 x=-4 y=-5 (-4,-5) is the ordered pair
What is the slope of the line -5x - 4y equals 6?
-5x-4y = 6 -4y = 5x+6 Divide all terms by -4 y = -1.25x-1.5 Slope = -1.25 and intercept = -1.5
What is the x-intercept and y-intercept of 5x subtract 4y equals 1?
y-intercept: -1/4 x-intercept: 1/5 5x-4y=1 -4y=-5x+1 y=5/4x+1/-4 5x-4y=1 5x=4y+1 x=4/5y+1/5
