Question

Write the equation in slope intercept form. what are the slope and y-intercept? -5x-12y=11

Answer 1

y= -5/12x - 11/12

Explanation:

i dont have any explanation

Answer 2

y = -
`(5)/(12)`x -
`(11)/(12)`; Slope is
`-(5)/(12)`; y-intercept is
`-(11)/(12)`.

Explanation:

-5x - 12y = 11. Write the equation.

-12y - 5x + 5x = 5x + 11 Isolate -12y by adding 5x to both sides.

`(-12y)/(-12)` =
`(5x)/(-12)` +
`((11)/(-12))` Isolate y by dividing both sides by -12.

y =
`-(5x)/(12) + (- (11)/(12))` Switch the + to - to eliminate the parenthesis.

y =
`-(5)/(12)x - (11)/(12)` is now in slope-intercept form.

Slope is
`-(5)/(12)`; y-intercept is
`-(11)/(12)`.
