Answer:
[tex]f(x) =- \frac{5}{4}x + 2 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
[tex] - 5x - 4y = - 8[/tex]
Multiply through by -1 to get:
[tex]5x + 4y = 8[/tex]
We can solve for y by Subtracting 5x from both sides.
[tex]4y = - 5x + 8[/tex]
Divide through by 4
[tex]y = - \frac{5}{4}x + 2 [/tex]
The formula for f(x) is
[tex]f(x) =- \frac{5}{4}x + 2 [/tex]
