Step-by-Step Analysis
The problem asks for two things from the line 2x + 5y = 12: the gradient (slope) and the y-intercept, and then the coordinates of that intercept. First, recall how to find the slope and intercept from a standard form equation. To get the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, solve for y: 5y = 12 - 2x, so y = (-2/5)x + 12/5. This reveals the slope m is -2/5, and the y-intercept b i......Login to view full explanation
