Answer: -5/3
Let’s first rewrite the equation
5x-6y=10
Now we need to turn this into y=mx+b form. As the equation suggests, we need to first get y alone on the left side. We’ll do this by subtracting 5x on both sides
5x-6y=10
-5x -5x
__________
-6y=-5x+10
Now we need to get y by itself. Since it is being multiplied by -6, let’s divide each number by -6.
-6y=-5x+10
-6y/-6=-5x/-6+10/-6
y=5/6x-10/6
y=5/6x-5/3
When returning to the model equation y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept. This means that whatever is in its place will be the same thing. In our formed equation, 5/3 is in the place of b. This is your answer!
