Answer:

y = 2x -6

Explanation:

Slope intercept form: y = mx +b

Here, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

  • To write in slope intercept form, isolate 'y'.
  • To isolate 'y', subtract 10x from both sides.

10x - 5y = 30

-5y = -10x +30

  • Divide both side by (-5)


\sf (-5y)/(-5) =(-10x)/(-5)+(30)/(-5)

y = 2x - 6
