Question

Rewrite the following linear equation in slope-intercept form.write your answer with no spaces. Y-5=3(x+1)

Answer 1

`y=3x+8`

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form is as follows:

`y=mx+b`

In this equation, "m" represents your slope and "b" represents your y-intercept.

To convert your equation into slope-intercept form, distribute your 3 across your parentheses and then add 5 to both sides to isolate for y.

`y-5=3(x+1)\\y-5=3x+3\\y=3x+8`
