Question

Let the equation of a line be described by Equation A:

Answer 1

10y - 5x = 40   Add 5x to both sides
       10y = 5x + 40   Divide both sides by 10
          y = $\frac{1}{2}$x + 4

The y-intercept is 4 and the slope of the line is $\frac{1}{2}$.

You can find these by comparing your equation to the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
