Question

I need help on thisChange the equation into a equivalent equation written in the Slope-intercept form. x -7y + 5 =0

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form is an equation as follows:

`y=mx+b`

Then, we need to change the original equation in this equivalent:

`-7y=-5-x\Rightarrow-7y=-x-5\Rightarrow7y=x+5`

Dividing the total equation by 7, we have:

`(7)/(7)y=(x)/(7)+(5)/(7)\Rightarrow y=(1)/(7)x+(5)/(7)`

Therefore, the slope-intercept form is:

`y=(1)/(7)x+(5)/(7)`
