Question

HELP! How would I solve this? 8x+12y=24?

Answer 1

solve for what?

Answer 2

If you're not solving for both variables and simply putting your equation in slope intercept form, Then you subtract -8x from both sides and divide the RHS of your equation by 12 to isolate your y.

This would put your equaition in slope intercept form: \(y=mx+b\)

Answer 3

@jhannybean I have to solve for two variables

Answer 4

Well, the first method I showed you lets you solve for y,

Do the same for x by isolating it to one side.
