Question

Algebra II question. Will Medal!

Answer 1

what's your question?

Answer 2

It's in the attachment. I would like to know how to solve for this

Answer 3

okay, you want to rearrange the equation to make y the subject
in the form y=mx+c
attempt this, post your attempt and I will correct you if needed

Answer 4

@BloomLocke367

Answer 5

also know that the y intercept is the constant

Answer 6

5=-10-1/2y

Answer 7

*5=-10-1/2y

Answer 8

\[-10x-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }y=5\]

\[2(-10x)-(2)(\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }y)=2(5)\]

Answer 9

multiply out, then rearrange for y=mx+c

Answer 10

the constant C is your y intercept

Answer 11

where did the 2 come from?

Answer 12

Was it reciprocal?

Answer 13

-2x-1y=10

Answer 14

@amorfide

Answer 15

you had a fraction, so you multiply by 2 because you want y not half of y

Answer 16

-20x-y=10

rearrange to get y=mx+c
what do you get

Answer 17

y=-20x-10

Answer 18

okay so c=-10
therefore the y intercept is -10

Answer 19

Thanks!
