Question

Convert 6y+7x/2 = x+1 into slope intercept form

Answer 1

`y = -(5)/(12)x + \frac{1}6`

Explanation:

1) Multiply both sides by 2.

2(6y + 7x/2) = 2(x + 1)

12y + 7x = 2x + 2

2) Subtract 7x from both sides.

12y + 7x = 2x + 2

- 7x - 7x

12y = -5x + 2

3) Divide both sides by 12.

12y / 12 = (-5x + 2) / 12

y = -5x/12 + 1/6
