Question

can anyone help me with this problem..
6x + 2y = –88

Answer 1

what do you want to do with it ?

Answer 2

y=-3x-44 thats as far as i could take it

Answer 3

What answer are you looking for?

Answer 4

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line

Answer 5

take what @babygirl11271963 did
which is in the form of y = mx+b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept

Answer 6

but how would I do that im new to this problem...????

Answer 7

@Philippians413

Answer 8

slope is -3 and y intercept is -44

Answer 9

put it in slope intercept form of y = mx+b
m being the slope
b being the y-intercept
you have
\[6x+2y=-88 \] subtract 6x to both sides
\[2y= -6x-88 \] divide everything by to to isolate y
\[y = -3x-44 \]

Answer 10

i took 6x+2y=-88 and subtracted 6x from both sides to move it to the opposite side. now you have 2y=-6x-88. divide it all by 2 so you can single out the y. you get y=-3x-44. y and x are your variables and your slope is -3 and you y intercept is -44

Answer 11

yeah what he said XD

Answer 12

okay so this how you do it
6x+2y=-88
get 6x on the other side of the equation so
2y=-6x-88
then for the intercept form u need to get rid of the 2 in front of the y so
the equation would end in
y=-6/2-88/2
so y=-3-44
You see?

Answer 13

thank you to al of you :) this was a a lot of help with my future problems.. :) wish I can give all of you guys medals

Answer 14

now you have it in slope intercept form
\[y = mx+b \]
\[y = \color {red}{-3}x\color{red}{-44}\]

Answer 15

we all saif the saem thing :| i think he gets it

Answer 16

said same ****
