what do i do when I need to put 2y=6x-2 in slope-intercept form which i know is y=mx+b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get y by itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it ok to have a 2 in front of the y? or do i need to get y totally by itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no divide by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it's not ok to have a 2 in front: the form is y=mx+b, where m and b are the only numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ok...lemme try that thanks yall

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do i divide it with?...im sorry i have a really hard time with math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you divide with whatever is in front of y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dont I have to divide both sides by 2? and if so do i divide it with the 6x or the -3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, you divide the same number from both side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer would be y=3x-1??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!! i appreciate it
