Question 524505: find the slope and the y-intercept of the line whose equations is given. 10x+5y=15

Simply rearrange:
10x+5y=15
so that it is in "slope-intercept" form:
y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept at (0,b)
.
10x+5y=15
5y= -10x+15
y= -2x+3
.
From inspection then, we see that
slope is -2
y-intercept is at (0,3)
