Question

Examine the equation: 4x = 2 − y Which equation represents the equivalent equation in slope-intercept form?

y = –4x + 2

y = –4x - 2

x = 2 - 4y

x = 8 - 4y

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

`y=-4x+2`

Explanation:

Since, the slope intercept form of a line is,

`y=mx+c`

Here, the given equation is,

`4x=2-y`

`4x+y=2` ( Additive property of equality )

`y=-4x+2` ( Subtraction property of equality )

Hence, the equation that represents the equivalent equation of the given equation in slope-intercept form is,

`y=-4x+2`

First option is correct.
