Question

What is the slope and y-intercept of 6x-5y=13

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is 6/5 and the y intercept is -13/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-5y=13

Solve for y

Subtract 6x from each side

6x-6x-5y=-6x+13

-5y = -6x+13

Divide by -5

-5y/-5 = -6x/-5 +13/-5

y = +6/5x -13/5

This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 6/5 and the y intercept is -13/5
