Question

5x-2y=2 slope intercept form?

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = \frac{5}{2}x-1$  

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is represented by the formula $y = mx + b$. So, to place the given equation in slope-intercept form, isolate the y on the left side and arrange the terms in that matching order. Remember, whatever you do to one side, do to the other:

$5x-2y = 2\\-2y = -5x + 2\\\frac{-2}{-2}y = \frac{-5}{-2} x+\frac{2}{-2} \\y = \frac{5}{2} x-1$

So, the slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{5}{2}x-1$.
