Question

The line 5y−6x−10=0 is given. Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y = (6/5)x + 2

Explanation:

5y−6x−10=0

5y = 6x + 10

y = (6/5)x + 10/5

y = (6/5)x + 2

Answer 2

y = 6/5x +2

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is

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

5y−6x−10=0

Add 10 to each side

5y−6x−10+10=0+10

5y -6x = 10

Add 6x to each side

5y-6x+6x=6x+10

5y = 6x+10

Divide each side by 5

5y/5 = 6x/5 +10/5

y = 6/5x +2

The slope is 6/5 and the y intercept is 2
