15x + 3y = 10.

you have to solve for y.
isolate the variable.
15x + 3y = 10
start by subtracting 15x on both sides.
3y = -15x +10
then divide both sides by 3
y = -15/3x + 10/3
simplify.
y = -5x + 10/3

10/3 can be written as 3.33
or 3 and 1/3

Answer:

The slope intercept form of the equation is
y=5x where, 5 is the slope of the equation.

Explanation:

Given : Equation
15x-3y=0

To find : What is the equation written in slope-intercept form?

Solution :

The slope intercept form is
y=mx+c

where, m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

So, In the given equation take y to one side,

Equation
15x-3y=0

Subtract -15x both side,


15x-3y-15x=0-15x


-3y=-15x

Divide by 3 both side,


(-3y)/(3)=(-15x)/(3)


-y=-5x

Cancel the subtract sign,


y=5x

Therefore, The slope intercept form of the equation is
y=5x where, 5 is the slope of the equation.
