Find the slope of the line	 	
y = 4x + 	7/8



The equation given is in the slope-intercept form, which is:

\[
y = mx + b
\]

where:
- \(m\) is the slope of the line.
- \(b\) is the y-intercept.

For the equation \(y = 4x + \frac{7}{8}\), the slope \(m\) is the coefficient of \(x\). 

Here, the coefficient of \(x\) is 4. 

Therefore, the slope of the line is:

\[
\text{slope} = 4
\]
