Answer:
the slope is [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] and the y-intercept is [tex]1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
if we can get it to [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] form, then it's easy since the slope is [tex]m[/tex] and the y-intercept is [tex]b[/tex]
solve [tex]2x-5y=-5[/tex] for [tex]y[/tex]
[tex]2x-5y=-5[/tex]
minus 2x from both sides
[tex]-5y=-2x-5[/tex]
divide by -5 both sides
[tex]5y=\frac{2}{5}x+1[/tex]
match
[tex]m=\frac{2}{5}[/tex] and [tex]b=1[/tex]
the slope is [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] and the y-intercept is [tex]1[/tex]
