Question

Change this equation, in standard form, to slope-intercept form: 2x + 3y = 18

Answer 1

y= -2/3x + 6

Explanation:

Subtract 2 from both sides of the Equation:

3y=18-2x

Divide each term by 3 and simplify:

y= - 2x/3 +6

Rewrite into slop-Intercept form;

y=2/3x+6

Answer 2

y = -2/3 + 18

Explanation:

2x + 3y = 18 ----- here is the equation...

-2x - 2x ----- bring the 2x to the other side

3y = -2x + 18 ----- now you have to divide everything by 3 to get y by itself

y = -2/3 + 18 ----- Done!
