How do you write Y-X=5 in slope intercept form

Hello!

First of all we need to find what y equals to have it in slope intercept form.

y-x=5
y=x+5

As you can see, our slope has to be one, and our y-intercept is 5.

y=x+5

I hope this helps!

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

Isolate the y. Add x to both sides

Y - X (+X) = 5 (+X)

Y = 5 (+X)

Note however, that 5 is the b (constant), and so it needs to behind 1(x) (the slope and variable.)

Y = X + 5 is your answer


hope this helps
