Find the Slope y=1/3x-4

$y = \frac{1}{3} x - 4$

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.

$y = m x + b$

Simplify the right side.

Combine $\frac{1}{3}$ and $x$ .

$y = \frac{x}{3} - 4$

Reorder terms.

$y = \frac{1}{3} x - 4$

Step 2

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ .

$m = \frac{1}{3}$
