This looks familiar, right? Like slope-intercept.
y=mx+b, where m is the slope.
Let's right it like that.
5y=3x-10 (add 3x to both sides, since we want to isolate the y.)
Now divide by 5, since - again - we want to isolate the y.
y= 3/5x-10/5 >>>> y= 3/5x-2
I think the slope is 3/5.
If the line happens to be parallel, the slope is the same. If perpendicular, it is opposite reciprocal. So if it was perpendicular, the slope would be -5/3.
y = - 5
substitute the value of x = 4 into the equation and solve for y
- 12 + 9y = - 57 ( add 12 to both sides )
9y = - 45 ( divide both sides by 9 )
y = 
= - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
this simply means that the sum of both short segments must be the same as the length of the whole line.
so,
x + 6 + x + 8 = 10
2x + 14 = 10
x + 7 = 5
x = 5 - 7 = -2
It would be 2/10 or 1/5 simplified
