Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form. 5x − 11y = 5

Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation in standard form, 5x − 11y = 5:

In order to rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, we must algebraically isolate the variable, y.

Start by subtracting 5x from both sides of the equation.

5x − 11y = 5

5x − 5x − 11y = − 5x +  5

−11y = − 5x +  5

Next, divide both sides of the equation by −11 to isolate y:

 ⇒ This is the slope-intercept form, where:

.

ok then what happened.
