Question

Convert the equation `8x-4y=24` into slope intercept form. SHOW WORK TO SUPPORT.

Answer 1

y=2x-6

Explanation:

First isolate the variable. You're trying to find y, so you need to ultimately leave y by itself.

8x-4y=24

Subtract 8x from both sides to cancel out the 8.

You should have the equation below left:

-4y= -8x+24

Now, divide everything by negative for so that you are only left with the y.

You should have the equation below left.

y=2x-6

I hope this helped:)

Answer 2

8x-4y=24

sub 8x from both sides

-4y=24-8x

sub 24

-4y-24=-8x

add -4y

-24=4y=8x
