5x-y=8
The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y=mx+b
Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation.
-y=8-5x
Multiply each term in -y=8-5x by -1
Multiply each term in -y=8-5x by -1.
(-y)⋅-1=8⋅-1+(-5x)⋅-1
Multiply (-y)⋅-1.
Multiply -1 by -1.
1y=8⋅-1+(-5x)⋅-1
Multiply y by 1.
y=8⋅-1+(-5x)⋅-1
y=8⋅-1+(-5x)⋅-1
Simplify 8⋅-1+(-5x)⋅-1.
Simplify each term.
Multiply 8 by -1.
y=-8+(-5x)⋅-1
Multiply -1 by -5.
y=-8+5x
y=-8+5x
Reorder -8 and 5x.
y=5x-8
y=5x-8
y=5x-8
y=5x-8
Rewrite in Slope-Intercept Form 5x-y=8
