Question 161359
.
5x+6y=18
Subtracting 5x from both sides:
6y = -5x+18
Finally, dividing both sides by 6:
y = (-5/6)x + 3
.
This is in the form of "slope-intercept" of a line:
y = mx + b
where
m is slope
b is y-intercept at (0,b)
.
In your case,
y = (-5/6)x + 3
slope is -5/6
y-intercept is at (0,3)
