Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions. 18x + 3y = -21 ​

Answer 1

y= -1/6x -7

Explanation:

18x+3y=-21

first find y intercept

18(0)+3y=-21

/3 /3

y intercept is -7.

next find slope

18x+3y=-21

-3y -3y

18x=-3y-21

slope is -1/6

so the answer is y=-1/6x-7

Answer 2

y=-6x-7

(You write the equation in slope-intercept for (y=mx+b).

Then you go from there, subtracting when needed.)
