Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form. 5x - 5y ≥ 70

Solution:

Given inequality 5x - 5y ≥ 70

Take 5 common

⇒ 5(x - y) ≥ 70

divide by 5 on both sides

⇒ x - y ≥ 14

⇒ -y ≥ 14 - x

⇒ y ≤ -14 + x

⇒ y ≤ x-14

This is in the slope intercept form y = mx + c

Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form. 5x - 5y ≥ 70

Summary:

The following inequality in slope-intercept form. 5x - 5y ≥ 70 is y ≤ x-14
