Solve for x/2 + y/5=1 for y.
Answer : y= -5/2x +5
Step 1. The answer is in slope-intercept form where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept when x=0 at point (0,b). In this example, the answer reveals that m=-5/2 and b=5.
Step 2. To get this equation from , use the following steps:
Multiply by 10 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the denominators.
Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation
Divide 2 to both sides of the equation
ANSWER
Now here's a plot and note the slope m=-5/2 and y-intercept b=5 at point (0,5)
I hope the above steps were helpful.
