Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions 2x+6y=−24

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is -1/3 and the y-interept is -4 or (0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for y will put this equation into slope-intercept form.

Dividing both sides by 6, we get:  (1/3)x + y = -4

Now solve this result for y  Subtract (1/3)x from both sides:

y = -(1/3)x - 4    This is the equation in slope-intercept form. The slope is -1/3 and the y-interept is -4 or (0, -4)
