Question

Identify the correct slope and y-intercept of the equation 5x - 3y = -6

Answer 1

solve for y

Answer 2

how do u

Answer 3

oh wait i remember

Answer 4

y=2

Answer 5

nope, where did the x go?

Answer 6

i thought the x would equal 0 when u solve for x

Answer 7

i mean when u solve for y

Answer 8

no, start by subtracting 5x from both sides

Answer 9

5x -3y=-6

Answer 10

-3y=-6

Answer 11

5x -3y=-6

-5x = -5x
-----------------
-3y =-6-5x

Answer 12

now divide both sides by -3

Answer 13

y=-5

Answer 14

the equation of a line is given by:
y= mx +c
where m is the gradient (slope) and C the y -intercept,
rearrange your equation in this format and you'll get an answer.
so 5x - 3y = -6
becomes
-3y = -5x - 6
3y = 5x + 6
y = 5/3 x + 2
so whats your slope?

Answer 15

-6-5x
------
-3

Answer 16

-6/-3 - 5x/-3 =2 + 5/3x

Answer 17

number next to x is slope , other one is y intercept
