Answer :

Slope intercept form: y=mx+b
in other words, isolate y.

5x-2y=3

Subtract 5x from both sides
-2y=(-5x+3)

Divide both sides by -2
y=5/2x-3/2

Answer:
y=5/2x-3/2

Answer:

Slope-Intercept Form states that in the equation of a straight line y=mx+b the slope is the number represented by m that is multiplied on the x, and b is the y intercept i.,e the point where line cut the vertical  y-axis.

Given equation: 5x+2y=3              ......[1]

To convert this equation into slope intercept form;

Subtraction Property of equality states that you subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract 5x from both sides in equation [1];

[tex]5x+2y-5x=3-5x[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]2y=3-5x[/tex] or we can write this as;

[tex]2y=-5x+3[/tex]                 ......[2]

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number from both sides of an equation:

Divide by 2 from both sides of an equation in [2]

[tex]\frac{2y}{2} =\frac{-5x+3}{2}[/tex]

On simplify:

[tex]y=-\frac{5}{2}x+\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the given equation in slope intercept form is: [tex]y=-\frac{5}{2}x +\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
