Write in Slope-Intercept Form 5/3y=-(x-5)

$\frac{5}{3} y = - (x - 5)$

Step 1

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

$y = m x + b$

Step 2

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Simplify the left side.

Combine $\frac{5}{3}$ and $y$ .

$\frac{5 y}{3} = - (x - 5)$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $- (x - 5)$ .

Apply the distributive property.

$\frac{5 y}{3} = - x - - 5$

Multiply $- 1$ by $- 5$ .

$\frac{5 y}{3} = - x + 5$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $\frac{3}{5}$ .

$\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{5 y}{3} = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Simplify $\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{5 y}{3}$ .

Cancel the common factor of $3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{5 y}{3} = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{1}{5} (5 y) = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Cancel the common factor of $5$ .

Factor $5$ out of $5 y$ .

$\frac{1}{5} (5 (y)) = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{1}{5} (5 y) = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = \frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $\frac{3}{5} (- x + 5)$ .

Apply the distributive property.

$y = \frac{3}{5} (- x) + \frac{3}{5} \cdot 5$

Combine $\frac{3}{5}$ and $x$ .

$y = - \frac{3 x}{5} + \frac{3}{5} \cdot 5$

Cancel the common factor of $5$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$y = - \frac{3 x}{5} + \frac{3}{5} \cdot 5$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = - \frac{3 x}{5} + 3$

Write in $y = m x + b$ form.

Reorder terms.

$y = - (\frac{3}{5} x) + 3$

Remove parentheses.

$y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 3$

Write in Slope-Intercept Form 5/3y=-(x-5)
