Question

In order to convert this equation to Slope-Intercept Form, you must first isolate y What is the first step in isolating y? 4x + 5y = 10
A. Use the Subtraction Property of Equality to subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.

B. Use the Addition Property of Equality to add 5y to both sides of the equation.

C. Use the Division Property of Equality to divide the equation by 4.

D.
Use the Subtraction Property of Equality to subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Use the Subtraction Property of Equality to subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 4x + 5y = 10

we have to convert it in slope intercept form

slope intercept form is given by y = mx + c

now seeing the slop intercept form ,

we can say that

we have to isolate y , for that we have to remove 4x from

4x + 5y = 10 from RHS of the equation

to do that we have to subtract 4x from both side as shown below

4x + 5y - 4x = 10 - 4x

this step is called  Subtraction Property of Equality to subtract 4x from both sides of the equation

and hence option A is the correct choice
