1/4x-1/5y+1=0
move 1/5 y to the right

multiply with 5 on both sides

.............eq(1)
slope intercept form of line y= mx+c..........eq(2)
where m = slope
c= y-intercept
compare eq(1) & eq(2)
slope(m)= 5/4
y-intercept (c) = 5

1/4x-1/5y+1=0. What is its slope and y intercept
Place the equation in slope-intercept form, as follows:



 ------ Adding 

 ------ Dividing by , or multiplying by 5



As seen, slope, or m is: , and y-intercept is:         

You can do the check!!
