Question

How do you right 4x+6y=24 in slope intercept form

Answer 1

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

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given the equation

4x + 6y = 24 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

6y = - 4x + 24 ( divide through by 6 )

`(6)/(6)` y =
`(-4)/(6)` x +
`(24)/(6)` ( simplifying gives )

y = -
`(2)/(3)` x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form
