Question

How do you write `2x + y = 5` into slope intercept form?

Answer 1

`y = -2x + 5`

Explanation:

slope intercept form is `y = mx + b`
that means you should try to get `y` alone on one side

from

`2x+y=5`

we can subtract `2x` from both sides and get

`y = -2x + 5`

which is the form you want!
