Can you rewrite the equation here in slope intercept form:   y = mx + b?

anonymous · Answer

ummmm i dnt get the question lol thts why i asked it..this is my friends account and im a girl lol so if u can help thank u so much

anonymous · Answer

I don't see how your gender has any relevance.

You need to first rewrite the equation in slope intercept form. 
Hint: add 3x to both sides.

anonymous · Answer

idk guys sometimes rather help girls u know there weird....i still dont get it lol im so sorry

anonymous · Answer

If you add the 3x to both sides you get:
$$y = 3x - 1$$
This is in slope intercept form y = mx + b. Here, m = 3, since it's in front of the x. That is the slope.

anonymous · Answer

Here, the constant is irrelevant. You just need a slope that is perpendicular. To find the perpendicular line's slope, take the reciprocal of m, and take its opposite sign. What is the reciprocal of 3?
