Question

Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form. (y=mx+b) -y + 4x = - 8

Answer 1

So first what you would do is you would subtract 4x from both sides.
When you do that what do you get?

Answer 3

I HAVE NO IDEA.

Answer 4

Please walk me thru.

Answer 5

I never listened to my teacher now i'm in a hole#

Answer 6

Ok so if you did that you would get -y=-4x-8
But now you need to get rid of the negative in front of the y. So you multiply the whole equation by -1 and that would give you your final answer.
y-4x+8

Answer 7

*y=4x+8

Answer 8

\[-y + 4x = - 8\]subrtact 4x on both sides of the equal sign.\[-y+4x-4x=-4x-8\\-y=-4x-8\]divide -1 on both sides of the equal sign\[\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{-4x-8}{-1}\\y=4x+8\] thats your answer! :)

Answer 9

ok I think I get it
