Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all

fractions.
10x + 2y = -18

Answer 1

y = -5x-9

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

10x + 2y = -18

Subtract 10x from each side

10x + 2y-10x =-10x -18

2y = -10x-18

Divide each side by 2

2y/2 = -10x/2 -18/2

y = -5x-9
