Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.

12x - 20y = -100

Answer 1

y = 5 + 3/5x

Explanation:

We need to isolate y to get it in slope-intercept form. Let's subtract 12x from both sides, which gives us
`-20y=-100-12x`. Then, we can negate both sides, and then divide by 20, which results in
`y = (100+12x)/20`, which we can further simplify to
`y=5 + 3/5x`, which gives us our answer.
