rewrite in y-slope intercept form? help!
y-5x=6
isn't it y=5x+6?
since y=mx+b..
thanks!
Sure! To rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept, we need to isolate the "y" variable on one side of the equation.
Starting with the given equation: y - 5x = 6
To isolate y, add 5x to both sides of the equation:
y - 5x + 5x = 6 + 5x
y = 5x + 6
Therefore, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = 5x + 6. The slope is 5, and the y-intercept is 6.
