Answers:
slope = -5
y intercept = 18
================================================
Work Shown:
Solve for y
10x+2y = 36
2(5x+y) = 36
5x+y = 36/2 .... dividing both sides by 2
5x+y = 18
y = 18-5x .... subtract 5x from both sides
y = -5x+18
The last equation is in slope intercept form y = mx+b.
We have m = -5 as the slope and b = 18 as the y intercept.
The slope -5 can be written as -5/1 to indicate "go down 5, go over to the right 1".
