Answer

\(\boxed{y=\frac{5}{2} x+5}\) is the equation in the form \(y=mx+b\).

Steps

Step 1 :The given equation is in the form \(ax+by+c=0\). We need to convert it to the form \(y=mx+b\). To do this, we need to isolate \(y\) on one side of the equation.

Step 2 :Rearrange the equation to isolate \(y\) on one side: \(y=\frac{5}{2} x+5\).

Step 3 :\(\boxed{y=\frac{5}{2} x+5}\) is the equation in the form \(y=mx+b\).
