2x-10+3y+1=32x+11+3y=32x+3y=-83y=-2x-8y=-2/3x-8now it is in y=mx+b form, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

To make this problem easy to conquer, you'll want to convert it to slope intercept form (y=mx+b). 2(x-5)+3y+1=3 First, distribute the 2. 2x - 10 + 3y + 1 = 3 Combine like terms: -10 + 1 2x - 9 + 3y = 3 Add 9 to both sides. 2x + 3y = 12 Subtract 2x from both sides. 3y = -2x + 12 Divide both sides by 3 to get y by itself, making sure you divide every term. 3y/3 = -2x/3 + 12/3 y = -2/3x + 4 Now, it's in y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y intercept.
