Question

reduce the equation 3x+y-2=0 to the slope-ntercept form

Answer 1

Slop intercept form is y=mx + b

Answer 2

So we need to get y by itself on one side of the equals sign and everything else on the other side.

Answer 3

Any ideas @velasco ?

Answer 4

yes.

Answer 5

What do you think?

Answer 6

you can add equation,attachments,and drawings to better explain your answer.

Answer 7

I can't because I'm on an iPad. Did you have any thoughts on how to solve for y?

Answer 8

it is correct that solve like this,y=3x+2?

Answer 9

Very close" to move the 3x you need to subtract on both sides.

Answer 10

y = -3x + 2

Answer 11

Make sense?

Answer 12

thank you....

Answer 13

You're welcome.

Answer 15

so how to solve like this one?2x-7y+5=0?

Answer 16

Similarly, but an extra step since y has a coefficient.

Answer 17

Can you first solve for -7y?

Answer 18

so like this?7y=2x+5 or y=2/7x+5/7

Answer 19

Yes, good!

Answer 20

You catch on fast! :)

Answer 21

thank you again......

Answer 22

No worries. :)
