Question

Convert to slope intercept form

-4/3 (x+1) =y-2

Answer 1

Remember that slope-intercept form is the form:

`y = mx + b`

Let's use some operations to try to get our current equation to that form:

`- (4)/(3) (x + 1) = y - 2`

• Set up

`- (4)/(3) x - (4)/(3) = y - 2`

• Distribute the
  `- (4)/(3)` onto
  `(x + 1)` using the Distributive Property

`y = - (4)/(3)x + (2)/(3)`

• Add 2 to both sides of the equation

Our answer is
`\boxed{y = - (4)/(3)x + (2)/(3)}`.
