slope =45, y-intercept =−2

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is.

∙xy=mx+b

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

rearrange 5y−4x+10=0 into this form

add 4x and subtract 10 from both sides

⇒5y=4x−10

divide all terms by 5

⇒y=45x−2←in slope-intercept form

with slope =45 and y-intercept =−2

See below:

Explanation:

The equation of the line is

5y−4x=−10

5y=4x−10

So

y=4x5−105

y=45x−2

This is in the form of

y=mx+c

where;

  • y-intercept (c)=−2
  • slope (m)=45

Hope this will help you :)
