Answer: m = -5 and b = -6
Given that 10x + 2y = -12
The slope - intercept form of equation is written as
y = mx + b
where m = slope and b = intercept
This equation can be re-arrange as
2y = -12 - 10x
2y = -10x - 12
Divide all through by 2
2y/2 = -10x/2 - 12/2
y = -5x - 6
From, y = mx + b
m = -5 and b = -6
