Question

correction, the problem is 2x+4y-1=0

Answer 1

rearrange to get slope-intercept form
4y = -2x + 1
y = (-1/2)x + 1/4

slope = -1/2 and y intercept is 1/4 ( where x = 0)

Answer 2

So, why does -2x become -1/2x? I'm sorry but I'm really bad at math.

Answer 3

ok - i have divided each term by 4 to get y only on the left
so i need to do same to -2x and the 1
-2/4 = -1/2 and 1/4

slope intercept fore is y = mx + c where m = slope and c = y intercept

Answer 4

and 1 over 4 = 1/4

Answer 5

Oh, ok, I got it. Thanks!!!

Answer 6

no probs
