Question

I need to find the slope and y-intercept of
x+5y=10

Answer 1

do you know the slope intercept form of a line?

Answer 2

this math confuses me, I know y=mx+b, but I am not sure how to get there from the way that the problem is stated

Answer 3

okay. y = mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
now, x+5y = 10
subtract x from both sides and then divide by 5.

Answer 4

x=-2

Answer 5

x+5y = 10
5y = -x+10
y = -x/5 + 2

slope is -1/5, y-intercept is 2

Answer 6

x+ 5y - x = 10-x subtract x from both sides
5y = -x+10
y = (-x/5) + 2 divide both sides by 5
y = (-1/5)x+2

Answer 7

x+5y=10
5y= -x+10
y=-x+2
m= -1
b=2

Answer 8

AntsOfDglgmut.. what would my graphing points be..

Answer 9

slope is -1 and y int is 2

Answer 10

well your y-intercept is just the point (0,2) you can plug in points to your original equation to find other points.

Answer 11

and don't listen to kenya.

Answer 12

y i did it rite

Answer 13

no you didn't. you didn't divide -x by 5.
