Answer:

The variable <em>b</em><em> </em>represents the y-intercept, where the line intersects the y-axis.

The variable <em>m</em><em> </em>represents the <em>rate of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>]. The formula for the slope is down below:

\frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m

This is another way of saying \frac{rise}{run}.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

In the slope intercept formula

m is the slope  (\frac{rise}{run})

b is the y-intercept (the y-value of where the line intersects the y-axis)

Hope this helped!

<h2>Answer:</h2>

This is impossible to solve.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

For an equation or inequality to be solvable, there must be the same number of inequalities as variables. Here, there is an x and there is a y. This means that you need at least two inequalities to solve it.

You can, however, rearrange to get x or y on one side.

This can be done for x:

5x < 10 + 2y

x < 2 + 2/5y

Or it can be done for y:

5x < 10 + 2y

5x - 10 < 2y

2.5x - 5 < y
