The answer would be : y= 5x + 6

What to do: move the negative 10 in-front of the 12 to make it positive. And add the 12 to the 10x because the 12 is positive.
It would look like this : 2y =10x + 12

Then take the 2 from the y and divide it by the 10x and the 12.

It would look like this : y= 10x + 12
——————
2
10x/2 is 5x
12/2 is 6


So your final answer would be y=5x+6 in slope intercept form.

I hope this helps, Have a good day!

Answer:

y = 5x + 6

Explanation:

Write each equation in slope intercept form

-10x + 2y = 12

slope intercept form means solving for y:

-10x + 2y = 12

add 10x to both sides:

-10x + 2y + 10x = 12 + 10x

2y = 12 + 10x

rearrange right side:

2y = 10x + 12

divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = (10x + 12)/2

y = 5x + 6
