Question

Write the following equation in slope-intercept form
5+ 2y = 4

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope-intercept form :

y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = intercept

$5x + 2y = 4 \\ 2y = - 5x + 4 \\ y = \frac{ - 5}{2} x + \frac{4}{2} \\ \boxed{y = \frac{ - 5}{2}x + 2 }$

• Slope = -5/2 = -2.5
• Intercept = (0,2)
