Answer 2

so its -3y=-2x+7?

Answer 3

correct

Answer 4

after that ??

Answer 5

wait let me call some friends

Answer 6

k

Answer 7

put the equation in this form y=mx+b
can you do that ?!

Answer 8

-3y=-2x+7

Answer 9

you have -3y...how to turn it y=...

Answer 10

multiply by -3?

Answer 11

No :'( ! by \[-\frac{1}{3}\]

Answer 12

why??

Answer 13

Good question ! we had -3y \[-\frac{1}{3}(-3y)\]=?

Answer 14

y

Answer 15

=y

Answer 16

yes ! "y" that's what we are looking for !
multiply by \[-\frac{1}{3}\] both sides of the equation !

Answer 17

so y=y+7/3?

Answer 18

see now this form" y=(slope)x+b" ?!

Answer 19

no ! you had "-3y=-2x+7"

Answer 20

y=-2x+7

Answer 21

multiply by \[-\frac{1}{3}\] both sides !
and you'll get y=(slope)x+b
Sorry I have to go ! you just multiplied one side !
y=\[-\frac{1}{3} (-3y) =(\frac{-1}{3})(-2x+7)\]=(slope)x+b

Answer 22

-2/3x+-7/3?

Answer 23

+2/3x-7/3 ...negative by negative is positive @alloids65432
