Question

what is the y intercept of the line 5x-2y=20

Answer 1

Put it in the form of y = mx + b.

5x - 2y = 20
-2y = 5x + 20
y = -5/2x - 10

Answer 2

iGreen is correct....put it in y = mx + b form, and the number in the b position is the y intercept

Answer 3

wait....there's a mistake.
@iGreen ....check your math again...although the mistake is not gonna change the answer for the y intercept

Answer 4

My slope?

Answer 5

yep.....subtract 5x from both sides

Answer 6

Yeah, it's positive..not negative..

Answer 7

Positive 5/2, not negative..

Answer 8

it does not change the answer...the y intercept is still the same

Answer 9

I know..
