Put each equation into slope intercept form y=3x-4 and y=-2x+11 Aren't these both already in slope intercept form?
yes its already in slope intercept form :)
correct
Ok thanks so how do I put this equation into slope intercept form? 4x-y=1 and 5x+2=24 ?
What about 5x+2=24 ?
5x+2=24 5x=24-2 x= 22/5 no slope or slope is 0
4x-y=1 y=4x-1 slope is 4
Sorry I forgot the y it should be 5x+2y=24
so then would it be y=2.5x+12 ?
So I don't divide the 24 by 2 also ? which would be y=-2.5x+12 ?
sorry I caculator wrong 5x+2y=24 2y = 24-5x y= (24-5x)/2 y = -2.5x+12 yes, but slope is negative
Ok that helps thank you!
you are welcome
Can you work a couple more with me so I make sure I have this right ? y=-3x+6 ( is already in slope intercept form 2y=10x-36
I can try
So would it be y=5x-18 ?
y=-3x+6 ( is already in slope intercept form yes
y=5x-18 correct
Ok one more y=-x-9 ( already in slope intercept form) 3y=5x+5
y=-x-9 ( already in slope intercept form) yes
y=1.6x+1.6 ?
3y=5x+5 y=5x/3 +5/3
So then do you divide the 5/3 to get 1.6 or leave it in the fraction form?
if decimal leave in fraction\[y=\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}\]
