Answer:

Second equation Answer:
y=-(1)/(2)x-1

First equation Answer:
y=-(4)/(3)x~+(7)/(3)

Explanation:

Concept:

The general equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given below as


y=mx+c

where


m=slope


c=intercept

First equation

The first equation is given below as


4x+3y=7

We will make y the subject of the formula to change the equation in slope-intercept form


4x+3y=7

subtract 4x from both sides


4x-4x+3y=7=-4x


3y=-4+7

divide both sides by 3


(3)/(y) =(-4x)/(3) +(7)/(3)


y=-(4)/(3)x~+(7)/(3)

Hence,

The equation of 4x+3y=7 in slope intercept form is given below as


y=-(4)/(3)x~+(7)/(3)

Second Equation

The second equation is given below as


x+2y=-2Subtract x from both sides
x-x+2y=-2-x
2y=-x-2divide through by 2
(2y)/(2) =-(x)/(2) =-(2)/(2)
y=-(1)/(2)x-1

Hence,

The equation of x+2y=-2 in slope-intercept form is


y=-(1)/(2)x-1Hope this Helps! <3
