Question

Identify the correct slope and y intercept of the equation 2x + 4y = 12.

slope = 2; y intercept at (0, 12)

slope = one half; y intercept at (0, 3)

slope = one half; y intercept at (0, 4)

slope = -negative one half; y intercept at (0, 3)

Answer 1

Put the equation into the form:
y = mx + b
So you have to move everything exept the y to the right side of the equation.
Then, m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Answer 2

slope =

Answer 3

2

Answer 4

When you move 2x to the right side of the equation, it's going to become negative.

Answer 5

The slope does not equal 2. Leaving only y on the left side of the equation, you have to divide everything by 4.
