Answer: y = 5x+4

Work Shown:


8=2y-10x\\\\2y-10x = 8\\\\2y = 8+10x\\\\y = (8+10x)/(2)\\\\y = (8)/(2)+(10x)/(2)\\\\y = 4 + 5x\\\\y = 5x+4

Extra info:

  • This is a linear equation in the form y = mx+b
  • m = 5 is the slope and b = 4 is the y intercept
  • The line goes through the two points (0,4) and (1,9)
  • The x intercept is -4/5 = -0.8
