Explain all parts of the equation y=mx+b
*will mark brainliest*

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and b is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis). This useful form of the line equation is sensibly named as the "slope-intercept form".The coordinates of every point on the line will solve the equation if you substitute them in the equation for x and y. The slope m of this line shows its steepness, or slant - It can be calculated like this:

                         m = change in y-value  /change in x-value

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
