Question

what is the slope intercept form of the equation y-7=-5/2(x+4)?? need help!

Answer 1

slope intercept form looks like y = mx + b

So you need to simplify your equation until it resembles y = mx + b

y - 7 = -(5/2)(x + 4)

Start by multiplying out the stuff on the right side...

y - 7 = -(5/2)x -(5/2)(4)
y - 7 = -(5/2)x - 10

Then keep going to get the y all alone on the left.
