Question

Rewrite the equation 6x + 7y = 14 into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)

Answer 1

6x + 7y = 14

7y = -6x + 14

y = - 6/7 x + 2 <--------------- slope-intercept form

Answer 2

y = (-6/7)x + 2

Explanation:

6x + 7y = 14 to rewrite in the form y = mx + b,

make y the subject of the equation 6x + 7y = 14

7y = -6x + 14

divide both sides by 7

y = (-6/7)x + 2

The slope is -6/7 while the intercept is 2.
