Question

write the equation in the slope-intercept form 11x + 9y = 5

Answer 1

Do you know what the slope-intercept equation looks like?

Answer 2

Solve the equation for y...the slope intercept form of an equation is in the form y=mx+b

Answer 3

11x + 9y = 5
11x - 11x + 9y = 5 -11x
9y = 5 -11x
9y/9 = ( 5 -11x)/9
y=5/9-11x/9

Answer 4

Why just give her the answer? How have you helped her?

Answer 5

well slope intercept form is y=mx+b
another method to so this is to find the slope from the equation using -a/b
standard form is ax+by=c
in this case the slope would be -11/9 or m=-11/9
the 2nd part of the equation is the y-intercept which we can find if we substitute x=0
11x+9y= 5
11(0)+9y=5
9y=5
y=5/9
so the y intercept is 5/9 or b=5/9
now that we have both portions needed we input them into y=mx+b
y=-11/9x+5/9
