Question

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all

fractions.
8x + 10y = 70

Answer 1

y=-4/5 x + 7

Explanation:

Subtract 8 x by 8 x. Do not put 8 x under 10 y or 70.

Then divide 10 by all of the terms.

Then you have: y= 7 - 8/10 x

But then you have to flip 7 and - 8/10 x

And get y= -8/10 x + 7

Simplified is y= 4/5 x + 7

REMEMBER: y=m x + b

M= Slope

B= y-intercept
