What is the slope-intercept form of 4x+5y=10
Annette [7]

Answer: The slope intercept form is  y= -4/5 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x +5y = 10

-4x            -4x

         5y= 10- 4x  divide both sides by 5

y= 2-4/4x write this in slope intercept form

y= -4/5 + 2

HELP PELASE ILL MARK BRAINLIEST AND POINTS!
UNO [17]

\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

Both the given lines in graph intersect at point (5 , -2), the point must satisfy both the equations.

and if we check the options, we will observe that D. option has both the equations that satisfy the given conditions.

that is ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x + y = 3

put y = - 2,we will get :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x - 2 = 3

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 5

so, 1st equation satifys the condition. let's check out 2nd one.

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x + 2y = 1

put y = -2

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x + (2 \times  - 2) = 1

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x - 4 = 1

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 5

Hence, we can conclude that the Correct choice is D
