Find the Slope and y-intercept y=5/2-5x

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

Step 1

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Reorder $\frac{5}{2}$ and $- 5 x$ .

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

Step 2

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = - 5$

$b = \frac{5}{2}$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $- 5$

y-intercept: $(0, \frac{5}{2})$

Slope: $- 5$

y-intercept: $(0, \frac{5}{2})$
