Question
Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.Parallel to $5 x-y=15$ and passing through $(-10,-1) .$
Step 1
To do this, we rearrange the equation $5x - y = 15$ into slope-intercept form, which is $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept. Rearranging, we get $y = 5x - 15$. So, the slope of the given line is $5$. Show more…
