What is another form of this equation? 2x+5y=10

Question

Please help! I can't find another form of that equation.

Answer 1

  Another form of equation 2x+5y=10 

i.   Slope intercept form 

5y=10-2x

Y=2-(2/5)x

 

Answer 2

Dear D'Marcus

 

2x + 5y = 10

 

To put the equation into the preferred "slope-intercept" form:

 

Subtract 2x from each side

 

5y = 10 - 2x

 

Divide both sides by 5:

 

y = 2 -(2x/5)

 

which shows us that the line has a slope of (-2/5) and a y-intercept of 2.
