Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
• y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
given
20x - 8y = 40 ( subtract 20x from both sides )
- 8y = - 20x + 40 ( divide through by - 8 )
[tex]\frac{-8}{-8}[/tex] y = [tex]\frac{-20}{-8}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{40}{-8}[/tex] , that is
y = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x - 5 ← in slope- intercept form
