10x+2y=10 - - >Y=-5x+5

Iyana Schultz · Answer 2

Slope-intercept form is Y = MX + B. This is in standard form, AX + BY = C. You have to move the X to the other side of the equation and simplify it.

10x - 2y = 10

- 10x - 10x Subtract 10x from both sides

- 2y = - 10x + 10 Now everything is in the right place, but it still needs to be simplified.

Divide each term by - 2, in order to isolate the variable Y.

- 2y / - 2 = - 10x / - 2 + 10 / - 2

The answer is: y = 5x - 5
