You can simplify this to slope intercept form:

Subtract 2x to get y on one side

-48-2x= -8y

Divide both sides by -8

y=2x/8+6

y=x/4 + 6

Slope = 1/4

Answer:

m = 0.25

or

m = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Explanation:

-48 = 2x - 8y           Add 8y to each side

8y - 48 = 2x            Add 48 to each side

8y = 2x + 48           Divide each side by 8 to get y by itself

y = 0.25x + 6          The slope (usually represented as "m") is 0.25 or [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
