REWRITING EQUATIONS FROM STANDARD FORM TO SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM Standard Form of an Equation: • Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form. 1. 10x + y = 3 2. x - 2y = 4 3. 18x + 3y = 6

The slope intercept form is always y= mx + b, where m represents the slope or inclination, and b the y intercept ( the point where the line cuts the Y axis)

then first case 10x +y = 3 is rewrited to y= -10x + 3

second case x- 2y =4. Is rewrited to -2y = -x + 4 it means y = -x/-2 + (4/-2)

third case 18 x + 3y = 6. Is rewrited to 3y = -18x + 6. Then y= (-18/3)x + (6/3)
