Question

3x+6y=-12 slope intercept form?

Answer 1

y = -1/2x - 2

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. m= slope and b=y-intercept.

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.

Divide each term by 6 then simplify.

6y/6 = -3x/6 - 12/6

Cancel out the common factors

y = -3x/6 - 12/6

Simplify

y = -x/2 - 2

Answer:

y = - 1/2x - 2

Answer 2

y = -1/3x - 2

Explanation:

3x+6y=-12

-3x -3x

6y = -3x -12

/6 /6

y = -3/6x - 2

y = -1/3x - 2
