What is the gradient of the line 2y-8x =6

First write the equation in the form

y = mx +c

m = Gradient

2y - 8x = 6

2y = 8x + 6

Divide both sides by 2

You will get

y = 4x + 3

m = 4

Comparing with the above equation

Gradient of the line is 4

Hope this helps.

gradient = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation so that y becomes the subject of the formula

2y=8x+6

remember only y should be the subject not 2y... so divide every term by 2

y= 4x+3

the gradient is the coefficient( the term that comes before) of x

hence the answer is 4

a = 49°

Step-by-step explanation:

OB = OC ( both radii of the circle ), thus

Δ BOC is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is

∠ OBC = ∠ OCB = 41° , so

∠ BOC = 180° - (2 × 41)° = 180° - 82° = 98°

The angle on the circumference BAC is half the angle at the centre for angles subtended on the same arc , thus

a = 0.5 × 98° = 49°
