Question

Write the equation in slope intercept form. what are the slope and y intercept.
-3x-8y=10

Answer 1

`y = -(3)/(8) x - (5)/(4)`

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:
`\bold{y =-(3)/(8)x-(5)/(4)}`

Explanation:

`-3x - 8y = 10\\\\.\qquad - 8y = 3x+10\qquad \rightarrow \qquad \text{added 3x to both sides}\\\\.\qquad \qquad y = (3)/(-8)x+(10)/(-8)\quad \rightarrow \quad \text{divided everything by -8}\\\\.\qquad \qquad y =-(3)/(8)x-(5)/(4)\qquad \rightarrow \quad \text{reduced the fraction}`
