Solution Steps

Step 1: Convert the first equation to slope-intercept form

Given the equation: \[ -\frac{5}{3} x + \frac{1}{2} y = \frac{7}{5} \] First, isolate \( y \): \[ \frac{1}{2} y = \frac{5}{3} x + \frac{7}{5} \] Multiply both sides by 2: \[ y = \frac{10}{3} x + \frac{14}{5} \]

Step 2: Convert the second equation to slope-intercept form

Given the equation: \[ -\frac{20}{3} x + 2 y = 1 \] First, isolate \( y \): \[ 2 y = \frac{20}{3} x + 1 \] Divide both sides by 2: \[ y = \frac{10}{3} x + \frac{1}{2} \]

Final Answer

The equations in slope-intercept form are: \[ y = \frac{10}{3} x + \frac{14}{5} \] \[ y = \frac{10}{3} x + \frac{1}{2} \]
