Question

Find the slope & y intercept of 5x - 6 y =0

Answer 1

@Austin1617

Answer 2

5x - 6 y =0 must be written in the y = m*x + b form where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Answer 3

I'll move on given that you want to work with Austin1617. No worries.

Answer 4

I know im supposed to subtract the 5x add it to the other side and then divide by 6 right

Answer 5

Answer 6

Your slope is 5/6 and y-intercept is 0

Answer 7

Thank you!

Answer 9

>Your slope is 5/6 and y-intercept is 0

How did you get that? Please explain. Thanks. @Austin1617

Answer 10

@Directrix You should look at my math question.

Answer 11

What about the answer you posted in this thread. How did you get it?

Answer 12

I see a graph but no explanation for the OP.

Answer 13

is it positive or negative

Answer 14

positive right

Answer 15

-6y=-5x

Divide each term in -6y=-5x by -6

\[-\frac{ 6y }{ -6}=-\frac{ 5x}{ -6 }\]

Factor 6 out of -6

\[\frac{ 6y }{ 6\times-1 }=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

Next you will cancel out the common factor.
6 is the common factor.

\[\frac{ y }{ 6\times-1 }=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6}\]

Rewrite the expression.

\[\frac{ y }{ -1 }=-\frac{ 5x}{ -6 }\]

Move the negative one form the denominator of y/-1.

\[-1 \times y=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6}\]

\[-(-1\times y)=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

\[-(-y)=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

\[-1\times-1y=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

\[1y=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

\[y=-\frac{ 5x }{ -6 }\]

Answer 16

\[y=-(-\frac{ 5x }{ 6 })\]

\[y=-1\times -1(\frac{ 5x }{ 6 })\]

\[y=1(\frac{ 5x }{ 6 })\]

\[y=\frac{ 5x }{ 6 }\]

Slope-intercept formula
y=mx+b

m=5/6
b=0
