Slope intercept form is y = mx+ b

So in order to turn 5y-3x + 20 = 0 into Slope intercept form, all we need to do is solve for y!

Let's do it!

add 3x to the right side of the equation

5y - 3x + 20 = 0

5y + 20 = 3x

move 20 to the right side

5y = 3x - 20

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

y = 3/5x - 4

This is our answer!

Given the line below.

Yanka [14]

We have to write the equation of the line, in point-slope form. Given an identified point (x1, y1) as the point (-2, 2). So that means x1=-2 and y1=2

Value of slope "m" is not given so i will keep using "m" for the slope. In case value of slope m is given in the problem then you can plug that number in place of m.

Point slope formula is given by:

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

plug the given values into above formula :

$y-\left(2\right)=m\left(x-\left(-2\right)\right)$

$y-2=m\left(x+2\right)$

so the required answer in point slope form is $y-2=m\left(x+2\right)$

What is the first ordered pair and the second ordered pair?

Delvig [45]

When x=-5, y=(1/5)*(-5)-1=-2, so the first order pair is (-5,-2)
when y=-1, -1=(1/5)x-1, (1/5)x=0, x=0, so the second ordered pair is (0, -1)
