Question

Find the slope and y intercept for the given line.

3 x + 2 y = 7

m =
y -intercept Find the slope and y intercept for the given line.

3 x + 2 y = 7

m =
y -intercept @Mathematics

Answer 1

What do you think?

Answer 2

to solve this, you have to get the line (which is in standard form right now) into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b; m is the slope, b is the y-intercept.) get y on a side by itself. you will have to subtract 3x from the left side and the right side.
3x+2y=7
-3x -3x
-------------
2y=7-3x
now divide the 2 from the left side and the right side to get y by itself.
2y/2y=7-3x/2y
y=-3x+7

thus, your slope (m) is -3 and your y intercept (b) is 7.

Answer 3

sorry, i did my division incorrectly. when you divide 2 from both sides you get y=-3/2x-7/2. therefore your slope is -3/2 and your y intercept is 7/2
