Question

Standard form 3x+12y=-8 in slope-intercep form​

Answer 1

`y = -(1)/(4) x-(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

slope intercept form is y = mx + b

You need to solve the equation for y. First, subtract 3x from both sides since it is a positive 3x.

3x - 3x + 12y = -8 - 3x

rewrite the equation

12y = -3x - 8

divide all terms by 12

12y/12 = -3x/12 -8/12

Simplify the fractions

`y = -(1)/(4) x-(2)/(3)`
