Question:

Find the slope and y-intercept of the following
y=3x-5
5x-2y=3

Answer:

First rewrite the equations in the form, y = mx +b, where m is the slope and b the y intercept...


y=3x-5, which is in the standard form...
==> slope is 3 and y intervept is -5

5x-2y=3

==> +y+=+5x%2F2-3%2F2+


==> slope is 5/2 and y intercept is -3/2
