Question

Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form. 6x+2y≤46

Answer 1

y ≤ -3x + 23

Explanation:

1. 6x + 2y ≤ 46

•subtract “6x” from both sides to isolate the “y” variable

2. 2y ≤ 46 -6x

•divide both sides by “2”

3. y ≤ 23 -3x

•reorder the terms so it fits the “y = mx + b” slope-intercept format

4. y ≤ -3x + 23
