Question

Graph 2x - 5y = 10 using the slope and y-intercept

Answer 1

So in this one you need to make it into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b
M=Slope
B=y intercept

Answer 2

So you want to get y on one side :) Does that make sense? :)

Answer 3

So will that be 5y=-2y+10

Answer 4

Is this right

Answer 5

no

Answer 6

-2/5x + 2

Answer 7

How about this

Answer 8

add 5y to both sides

Answer 9

ok

Answer 10

what do you get?

Answer 11

-5/2+ 2

Answer 12

2x - 5y = 10

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

Answer 13

2x = 10 + 5y

Answer 14

5 + 5/2

Answer 15

2x - 10 = 10 + 5y -10 (subtract 10 from both sides)

Answer 16

2x - 10 = 5y

Answer 17

follow so far?

Answer 18

yeah

Answer 19

2x - 10 = 5y

(1/5)(2x - 10) = (1/5)(5y) multiply both sides by 1/5

Answer 20

(2/5)x - 2 = y

Answer 21

y = mx + b

Answer 22

got it?

Answer 23

add 2

Answer 24

why "add 2" ?

Answer 25

y = mx + b
y = (2/5)x - 2

Answer 26

ok

Answer 27

m = 2/5, b = -2

Answer 28

Alright

Answer 29

Thanks for your help
