# What is the slope-intercept form of 5y = -6x-10?

Apr 14, 2018

$y = - \frac{6}{5} x - 2$

#### Explanation:

Slope-intercept form: $y = m x + b$, where $m$ represents slope and $b$ represents the y-intercept

$y$ has to be isolated.

$5 y = - 6 x - 10 \rightarrow$ Divide each side by 5

$y = - \frac{6}{5} x - \frac{10}{5}$

$y = - \frac{6}{5} x - 2$
