Question

Put the following equation of a line into

slope-intercept form, simplifying all
fractions.
8y - 2x =-40?

Answer 1

To solve this, we can start by moving -2x to th right side of the equation:

-2x + 2x = 0

Our equation becomes:

8y = 2x - 40

Now, we divide all sides by 8 to find that:

y = 1/4x - 5

In simplified form, our expression is:

y = 1/4x - 5
