Question

Change this standard form equation into slope intercept form 6x - 2y=-8

Answer 1

we have the equation

6x-2y=-8

Convert to slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

so

Isolate the variable y

step 1

Adds 2y both sides

6x-2y+2y=-8+2y

6x=-8+2y

step 2

Adds 8 both sides

6x+8=-8+2y+8

6x+8=2y

step 3

Divide by 2 both sides

3x+4=y

rewrite

y=3x+4
