Question

X-4y=14 in slope intercept form

Answer 1

Can you solve for y?

Answer 2

since the slope int form is y=mx+b
subtract x from both sides
-4y=-x+14
Isolate y
you should be able to do the rest

Answer 3

I got y=-1/4x+ -3.5? Is that correct?

Answer 4

Answer 5

No. if you divide by a negative then 1/4 should be positive.
and for -3.5 that's good but put in into a fraction it is better so
y=1/4x-7/2

Answer 6

Missing a sign on x. Give it another go.

This is why I would recommend a slightly different methodology.

Given this

x-4y=14

Add 4y, rather than subtract x. Don't get all married to keeping y on the left.

x = 4y + 14

After this, there just are not that many sign problems.

Answer 7

Got it @Maymayk :) ?

Answer 8

Kinda can you help me graph it? @supraron

Answer 9

Sure, since b, which is 7/2 is the y-intercept then one point would be (0/7/2).
Now since your slope is 1/4 count 1 space up and 4 spaces to the right from the point (0,7/2) do that several times and draw your line . DONE ^^

Got it now ?
