Question

Change the equation to slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work

Answer 1

The equation ?

Answer 2

Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit on every wrap is $3. Sal made a profit of $1,470 from lunch specials last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,470 represents Sal's profits last month, where x is the number of sandwich lunch specials sold and y is the number of wrap lunch specials sold.

Answer 5

to change the equation to slope intercept form (y=mx+b) you first need to subtract 2x from both sides:
2x + 3y = 1,470
2x-2x+3y=1470-2x
3y=1470-2x
now divide both sides by 3:
3y/3=(1470-2x)/3
y=-2/3x + 490

Answer 6

in the y=mx+b form m is slope and b is y intercept

Answer 7

y=mx+b
y=-2/3x +490

what do you think the y-inter and slope is in your case?

Answer 8

remember:
slope in slope intercept form y=mx+b is m
slope in standard form ax+by=c is -a/b
