Slope intercept: y-y1=m(x-x1)
1) Solve the equation for y.
2x+5y=15
-2x -2x
5y=15-2x
y=3-2/5x

Slope: 2/5 (What's in front of x)
The slope is m.

x1 and y1 are coordinates so graoh this and find out what it is.
Then plug it into the equation.

Solve for y by making 5y alone on one side of the equal sign and dividing everything by 5. y=(-2/5)x+3
