LINEAR EQUATIONS HELP PLEASE. MEDAL WILL BE GIVEN.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A company produces accessories for smart phones and tablets. The profit on each smart phone case is $2, and the profit on each tablet case is $3. The company made a profit of $1,200 on the cases last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,200 represents the company's profit from cases last month, where x is the number of smart phone cases sold and y is the number of tablet cases sold. Change the equation into slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation.

the slope intercept form is: y= mx+b so here the equation will become: y=(1200-2x)/3 y=(1200/3)-(2x/3) y=400-2/3x or y= -2x/3+400 so here 400 is a y intercept and -2/3 is slope
