Question

Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form by solving for y:2x+7y=42

Answer 1

The equation is given as

`2x+7y=42`

We need to rewrite this in the slope intercept form.

The slope intercept form is

y = mx + b

Where

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

`\begin{gathered} 2x+7y=42 \\ 7y=-2x+42 \\ y=-(2)/(7)x+(42)/(7) \\ y=-(2)/(7)x+6 \end{gathered}`Answer
`y=-(2)/(7)x+6`
