Question

Write the equation in slope-intercept form
8x – 3y = 15

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope-intercept form :

y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = intercept

$8x - 3y = 15 \\ - 3y = - 8x + 15 \\ y = \frac{ - 8}{ - 3} x + \frac{15}{ - 3} \\ \boxed{ y = \frac{8}{3} x + ( - 5)}$

• Slope = 8/3
• Intercept = (0,-5)
