do you want to write in y=mx+b form or just use some random points to graph the line?

OpenStudy (freckles):

so have you solved 6x-5y=-10 for y yet? or having trouble with that?

OpenStudy (freckles):

6x-5y=-10 subtract 6x on both sides -5y=-6x-10 now divide both sides by -5

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[6x-5y=-10 \\ -6x \text{ } \text{ } \text{ } \text{ } \text{ } \text{ } \text{ } \text{ }-6x \text{ subtracting } 6x \text{ on both sides } \\ \underline{ } \\ -5y=-6x-10 \\ \frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-6x-10}{-5} \text{ dividing both sides by } -5 \\ \frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-6x}{-5} -\frac{10}{-5}\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

so after diving both sides by -5 we get...

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[y=\frac{6}{5}x+2 \text{ right ? }\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

y=mx+b tells us the slope is m and the y-intercept is b

OpenStudy (freckles):

so y=6x/5 +2 tells us the y-intercept and the slope is?

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

the slope is 6/5
