Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of 2x-5y=14 ? :)

Answer 1

please help! (:

Answer 2

Try to make y the subject of the formula. That will give both your answers.

Answer 3

First subtract 2x from both sides. You with me?

Answer 4

yes :)

Answer 5

What does your equation look like now?

Answer 6

so y=2/5x+ -14/5......?

Answer 7

Formula is
y=mx+b

So arrange the eq in that way.

Answer 8

so is it -14/5 or +14/5? Can't be both

Answer 9

-14/5 :)

Answer 10

So now you have
y = 2/5x - 14/5
The coefficient of x is the slope and the constant is the y-intercept.

Answer 11

thanks! :)

Answer 12

pleasure :)

Answer 13

slope is 2/5 and y-intercept is -14/5
