Question

write the linear equation in slope intercept form 9x-7y = -7

Answer 1

Answer: y=9/7x+1

Step-by-step explanation:To Write in a slope-intercept form, y=mx+b

Answer 2

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b   ["m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)]

So all you need to do is get "y" by itself:

9x - 7y = -7      Subtract 9x on both sides

9x - 9x - 7y = -7 - 9x

-7y = -7 - 9x     Divide -7 on both sides

$\frac{-7y}{-7}=\frac{-7-9x}{-7}$

$y =1+ \frac{9}{7}x$   or   $y=\frac{9}{7}x+1$   (I just rearranged it)
