SOLUTION: what is the slope of the line that contains the point (-4/5,3/2) and has the same y-intersept as 2x

SOLUTION: what is the slope of the line that contains the point (-4/5,3/2) and has the same y-intersept as 2x - 5y =6 ?

Question 675987: what is the slope of the line that contains the point (-4/5,3/2) and has the same y-intersept as 2x - 5y =6 ?
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Putting 2x-5y=6 into y = mx+b, b is the y intercept.
2x - 6 = 5y
y =
...
is the y intercept.
...
using the point(,)
plug into y = mx + b format using previously determined y intercpt
= m -
isloate the m variable

create a common denominator to add

multiply both sides by

...
slope, m, is
