Solved by pluggable solver: Converting Linear Equations in Standard form to Slope-Intercept Form (and vice versa)

Convert from standard form (Ax+By = C) to slope-intercept form (y = mx+b)

Start with the given equation

Subtract 5x from both sides

Simplify

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate y

Break up the fraction on the right hand side

Reduce and simplify

The original equation (standard form) is equivalent to (slope-intercept form)

The equation is in the form where is the slope and is the y intercept.
