-x+y=10

To convert the equation above to a slope-intercept form, here are the steps.

1. Isolate the variable "y" on the left side of the equation by removing -x. To remove -x, add "x" on both sides of the equation.


\begin{gathered} -x+y+x=10+x \\ y=10+x \end{gathered}

2. By commutative property, switch 10 and x.


y=x+10

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation is y = x + 10 where 1 is the slope while 10 is the y-intercept.
