Find the Slope 4y=14

$4 y = 14$

Step 1

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Divide each term in $4 y = 14$ by $4$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $4 y = 14$ by $4$ .

$\frac{4 y}{4} = \frac{14}{4}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{4 y}{4} = \frac{14}{4}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{14}{4}$

Simplify the right side.

Cancel the common factor of $14$ and $4$ .

Factor $2$ out of $14$ .

$y = \frac{2 (7)}{4}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $4$ .

$y = \frac{2 \cdot 7}{2 \cdot 2}$

Cancel the common factor.

$y = \frac{2 \cdot 7}{2 \cdot 2}$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = \frac{7}{2}$

Step 2

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is $0$ .

$m = 0$
