Question

Given the equation y − 4 = three fourths(x + 8) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in slope-intercept form.

−three fourthsx + y = 10

3x − 4y = −40

y = three fourthsx + 12

y = three fourthsx + 10

Answer 4

in other words, solve for y

\[y-a=m(x-b)\]
\[y-a=mx-mb\]
\[y=mx-mb+a\]

Answer 5

y - 4 = 3/4(x + 8) -- distribute the 3/4 through the parenthesis)
y - 4 = 3/4x + 6 (you want to get y by itself, so add 4 to both sides)
y - 4 + 4 = 3/4x + 6 + 4 (combine like terms)
y = 3/4x + 10 (slope intercept form)
