Answer:

• Error 1:, The equation of the line in ,slope-intercept form, is ,y = -2x +5, instead of y = 2x +5

,

• Error 2,: The ,slope of the line is -2 ,and not 2 as shown in question

Explanations:

Given the linear equation expressed as 4x + 2y = 10, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is in the form y = mx + b

where:

• m is the ,slope ,of the line

,

• b is te ,y-intercept

Write in slope-intercept form

4x + 2y = 10

2x + y = 5

y = -2x + 5

From the equation;

Slope "m" = -2

y-intercept = 5 (the point where the line crossed the y-axis)

Error description

• Error 1:, The equation of the line in ,slope-intercept form, is ,y = -2x +5, instead of y = 2x +5

,

• Error 2,: The ,slope of the line is -2 ,and not 2 as shown in question.

The correct graphical representation of the equation is given below:
