Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all
fractions.

18y – 3.x = -90

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept formula is $y = \frac{x}{6} - 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line, in slope-intercept formula, is given by:

$y = mx + b$

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept(value of x when y = 0).

In this question:

$18y - 3x = -90$

Isolating y:

$18y = 3x - 90$

$y = \frac{3x}{18} - \frac{90}{18}$

Simplifying the fractions:

$y = \frac{x}{6} - 5$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept formula is $y = \frac{x}{6} - 5$
