Answer:


slope \: (m) = (2)/(5) \\ \\ y - intercept \: (b) = (1)/(5)

Explanation:


5y = 2x + 1 \\ \\ \therefore y = (2x + 1)/(5) \\ \\\therefore y = (2)/(5) x + (1)/(5) \\ \\ equating \: it \: with \\ \\ y = mx + b \: we \: find : \\ \\ slope \: (m) = (2)/(5) \\ \\ y - intercept \: (b) = (1)/(5)
