99 POINTS PLS HELP Write the equation in slope-intercept form. 4x + 3y = 15

3y = -4x + 15
y = −4/3x + 5
y = −4/3x + 15
y = 4x - 15

Answer:

It's the second choice:

y = (-4/3)x + 5

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + c where m = the slope and c the y-intercept.

4x + 3y = 15

3y = -4x + 15

Divide through by 3:

y = (-4/3)x + 5.

To write in slope intercept form solve the equation for y:

4x + 3y =15

Subtract 4x from both sides:

3y = -4x +15

Now get Y by itself by divide all terms by 3:

y = -4/3x + 5
