Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 8....find the slope

in y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position...so lets put this equation in y = mx + b form

3x + 4y = 8.....subtract 3x from both sides

4y = 8 - 3x.....now divide both sides by 4

y = 2 - 3/4x....rearrange

y = -3/4x + 2

y = mx + b

y = -3/4x + 2

as u can see, the number in the m position (the slope) = -3/4
