Question

how to write x-2y=12 in slope- intercept form

Answer 1

were you able to get anywhere?

Answer 2

this pellet sucks it doesnt even help you.

Answer 3

well I will help you, but you have to tell me how far you got

Answer 4

ok I'll show you have to do this, but in the future please post your work so far

Answer 5

Help meeeee ! i dont even know how to use this thing -_-

Answer 6

\[\large x-2y=12 \]


\[\large -2y=12-x \]


\[\large -2y=-x+12 \]


\[\large y=\frac{-x+12}{-2} \]


\[\large y=\frac{-x}{-2}+\frac{12}{-2} \]


\[\large y=\frac{1}{2}x-6 \]

Answer 7

The idea is to isolate y and get it into y = mx+b form. The work above shows you how to do this.

Answer 8

Thanks. How do you do x+2y-2=0

Answer 9

x+2y-2=0

x+2y-2+2=0+2

x+2y = 2

2y = 2 - x


I'll let you finish up

Answer 10

do i just write it out like that ? I have to show work

Answer 11

yes I'm showing the work (not the full work since you need to finish up)

Answer 12

why cant you just finish it up ?

Answer 13

There are only a few steps left and you should get used to doing your own work.

Answer 14

I do but i just need to hurry up and do i need to turn it in.

Answer 15

your next step is to divide both sides by 2 (since you have 2y and you want to isolate y)

what do you get when you do that?

Answer 16

y= 1 over 2 ?

Answer 17

\[\large x+2y-2=0\]

\[\large x+2y-2+2=0+2\]

\[\large x+2y = 2\]

\[\large 2y = 2 - x\]

\[\large 2y = -x+2\]

\[\large y = \frac{-x+2}{2}\]

What's next?

Answer 18

idk. But gtg thanks for your help
