2y+3x=-5
what is m and c

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

m = -3/2

b = -5/2

Explanation:

Maybe you want the equation in slope-intercept form:

y = mx +b

You get there by solving for y.

2y = -3x -5 . . . . . . subtract 3x from both sides

y = -3/2x -5/2 . . . . divide both sides by 2

Comparing this to the slope-intercept equation above, we find ...

m = -3/2

b = -5/2
