What's the slope of y=x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

The equation is; y = X+5.

Comparing the equation with y = mx+c. Where "m" represents the slope, "c" is y-intercept and y is a variable. We get;

Slope (m)= 1

Hope it helps...

its the fourth option

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
