Question 149311
If you started with:
x - 5 y = 103
.
Start by moving the 'x' to the right.  Do this by subtracting an 'x' from each 
side.
x - 5 y - x = -x + 103 
-5y = -x + 103 
.
Now, divide both sides by -5:
(-5y)/(-5) = [-x + 103]/(-5) 
y = (1/5)x + (103/-5)
y = (1/5)x - (103/5)
That's it, you're done.
.
slope (m) is (1/5)
y-intercept (b) is at (0, -103/5)
