Question

What is x + 2y = 10?

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope:   1/2  Y-Intercept:  5

so y would equal 5

Answer 2

x + 2y = 10
2y = -x + 10; divide both sides by 2 to isolate y;
y = -1/2x + 5, so slope is -1/2 and y intercept is (0,5).

So this equation is a line with a slope (m) of -1/2, and crosses the y axis at (0,5).
