Question

2x + 3y = 1200, write in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

Any ideas?

Answer 2

You want to isolate the y to one side
2x+3y=1200
subtract the 2x from the left to isolate y
3y=-2x+1200
I will leave the simplification up to you.

Answer 3

it'd be -2/3x ? @Azureilai

Answer 4

What does "slope-intercept form" mean?

Answer 5

@sativamorgann Are you still there?

Answer 6

$$\huge y=mx+b$$

Answer 7

you already divided the -2 by 3, now you only need to divide 1200 by 3 to get the form. ( you divide all terms so equation remains balanced)

Answer 8

(-2/3)x is the mx part of the form y = mx + b
