Question

Graph the equation using the intercepts: −18x + 9y = 72. I know how to graph I just am not sure how to turn the equation into a y= equation. Please explain.

Answer 1

right so, to turn an equation from standard form into y intercept form we basically kind of move still around like a regular equation so

-18x + 9y = 72
9y = 18x + 72

and then we divide the whole equation by 9 so

y = 2x + 8

The answer would be y = 2x + 8

I hope this helps!!
