Question

write the following inequality in slope - intercept form.
10x - y < 5
write your answer with y first, followed by an inequality symbol. use integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the -y term

$10x - y < 5 \implies -y < 5 - 10x$

Step2: Multiply by -1, flip inequality

$-y < 5 - 10x \implies y > -5 + 10x$

Step3: Rearrange to slope-intercept form

$y > 10x - 5$

Answer:

$y > 10x - 5$
