What is -10x+2y=30 in slope-intercept form?

Hi.

1. Rewrite the equation:

$$-10x+2y=30\\\implies-5x+y=15\text { here we divided the entire equation by 2}$$

2. Slope intercept form is expressed as $$y=mx+b$$ where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Let's now finish up the equation and put the above into slope intercept form:

$$-5x+y=15\\\text { add 5x to both sides}\\\implies y=15+5x\\\implies \boxed {y=5x+15}\\\text { the slope is 5 and the y-intercept is 15}$$
