\n" );

Algebra.Com's Answer #168729 by RAY100(1637) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Remember that the slope intercept form is,,,y=mx+b,,,,with m=slope,,and b= y intercept \n" ); document.write( ", \n" ); document.write( "starting with 5x-2y = 30 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "-2y = -5x +30 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "y= (5/2)x -15 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "or slope = m = (5/2) \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "and y intercept =b = (-15) \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "checking,,,x=0,,,y= -15 ok \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "let y=0,,,,x= 6 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "m= (15)/ 6 = 5/2,,,,ok \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
