Question

What is 3y-x=-12 in y=mx+b form?

Answer 1

Given:

The equation is,

`3y-x=-12`

To express the given function into slope-intercept form,

`\begin{gathered} 3y-x=-12 \\ 3y=x-12 \\ \text{Divide by 3} \\ (3y)/(3)=(x)/(3)-(12)/(3) \\ y=(x)/(3)-4\ldots\text{. this is in the form y=mx+b} \end{gathered}`

Answer:

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