Question

5x - 10y = 18

.
• Rearrange this equation so it is in the form y = mx + b
After you have rearranged the equation, identify the slope and the y-intercept.
If x = 4, what should y =? Show all necessary work and steps. Round any decimals to
1 place as necessary.
• If y = 3, what should x =? Show all necessary work and steps. Round any decimals to
1 place as necessary.

Answer 1

1.) y = 1/2x -1.8 slope is 1/2 and y intercept is - 1.8

Explanation:

1.) 5x - 10y = 18

+10y +10y

5x = 10y +18

- 18 -18

5x - 10y = 18

10 10

= 1/2x -1.8
