Question

Find the slope of the following equation 5x+2y= -10 Simplify your answer.

Answer 1

Slope=-5/2

Explanation:

First, you need to convert the equation from standard from (Ax+By=C) to slope-intercept form (y=mx=b)

5x+2y= -10

-5x -5x

2y= -5x-10

/2 /2 /2

y= -
`(5)/(2)`x-5

find m (slope)

m=-
`(5)/(2)`

Answer 2

x = − 2 − 2 y /5
