With all the addition and subtraction signs missing, I will substitute a plus sign in front of all of them:
We have the slope 3x + 2y = 5
Rearrange to the gradient-intercept form:
2y = 5 - 3x
y = 2.5 - 1.5x
When y = mx + b, m is the gradient (slope) and b is the y intercept.
So in this case, the gradient (slope) is -1.5 and the y intercept is 2.5

What is the y-intercept for the graph of the equation 3x - 2y equals 5?
Put in function form. 3X - 2Y = 5 - 2Y = - 3X + 5 Y = 3/2X - 5/2 Y intercept = - 5/2
What graph of linear is inequality 6x 2y -10?
The inequality (6x + 2y - 10 > 0) can be rewritten in slope-intercept form as (y > -3x + 5). The boundary line is (y = -3x + 5), which has a slope of -3 and a y-intercept of 5. The region above this line represents the solution set for the inequality. Since the inequality is strict (>), the boundary line itself is not included in the solution.
Rewrite the equation 5x-2y0 in slope-intercept form?
5x - 2y = 05x - 5x - 2y = 0 - 5x-2y = - 5x(-2y)/-2 = (-5x)/-2y = (5/2)x where the slope is 5/2 and the y-intercept is 0.
Graph the line 5x-10 equals 2y?
2y = 5x - 10Putting into Slope-Intercept form, we have y = 5/2 x - 5. So, the y-intercept is -5 and the slope is 5/2 or 2.5. (x-intercept is 2).
What is the slope of 3x plus 5y equals 16?
3x + 5y = 16 5y = -3x + 16 y = -3/5 x + 16/5 By the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope b = y-intercept Therefore, the slope is -3/5.
