5x 4y8' means nothing in terms of coordinate geometry nor algebra.

However, if you mean 5x + 4y = 8

Then we can determine the slope.

Subtract '5x' from both sides

Hence

4y = -5x + 8

Divide both sides by '4'

Hence

y = (-5/4)x + 8/4

y = (-5/4)x + 2

The slope/gradient is '-5/4'.

Nothing because it's not an equation but some kind of algebraic expression...
