Question

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation y +5 = 4(x+8)?

A. y = 4x+37
B. y=-4x - 27
C. y=-4x +27
D. y = 4x+27

Answer 1

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

To find the slope intercept form for this equation, we need to first simplify both sides of the equation (if possible) in this case, we simplify 4(x+8) into 4x + 32. The current equation is y+5 = 4x + 32 Then we subtract 5 from both sides to leave Y by itself to complete the problem. We're left with y = 4x + 27.

Answer 2

D) y=4x+27

Explanation:

y+5=4(x+8)

y+5=4x+32

y=4x+32-5

y=4x+27
