Question

-4x + 2y = -12 Put the equation in Slope Intercept form.​

Answer 1

y = 2x - 6

Explanation:

The given equation is,

→ -4x + 2y = -12

Now we have to,

→ Convert this given equation into the slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is,

→ y = mx + b

Converting the given equation,

→ -4x + 2y = -12

→ 2y = -12 + 4x

→ 2y = 4x - 12

→ y = (4x - 12)/2

→ y = (4x/2) - (12/2)

→ y = 2x - 6

From this slope-intercept form:

→ Slope (m) = 2

→ y-intercept (b) = -6

Hence, the answer is y = 2x - 6.

Answer 2

Explanation:

PUTTING THIS EQUATION INTO SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM MEANS EXPRESSING IN FORM

Y = MX + C

-4x +2y = –12

adding 4x to both sides

=> 2y= 4x –12

dividing the whole equation by 2

y=2x –12

HENCE, EXPRESSED IN THE REQUIRED FORM.

hope this helps :)
