Question

The implicit form of a linear equation is:
y=8-1/2x
What is the explicit form?

Answer 1

what defines implicit and explicit formulas?

Answer 2

Well, implicit is when the equation is like, jumbled up. Explicit is in the right format of y=mx+c.

Answer 3

your function doesnt seem jumbled up to me tho ...

Answer 4

ax+by =c, is an implicit linear format

y=-a/b x +c/b, explicitly defines y in terms of x

Answer 5

I get that bit ^-^
So would it be y=1/2x+8 ?
