Question

Write the equation -3x + 4y = 16 in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y=3/4x+4

Explanation:

-3x+4y=16

4y=16-(-3x)

4y=16+3x

4y=3x+16

y=3/4x+16/4

y=3/4x+4

Answer 2

y =
`(3)/(4)` x + 4

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c

Given

- 3x + 4y = 16 ( add 3x to both sides )

4y = 3x + 16 ( divide all terms by 4 )

y =
`(3)/(4)` x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form
