Q-35

Convert this equation to slope-intercept form: y+2= -4/17x + 12/7

Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept)

given y + 2 = - $\frac{4}{17}$ x + $\frac{12}{7}$

Subtract 2 from both sides

y = - $\frac{4}{17}$ x + $\frac{12}{7}$ - $\frac{14}{7}$

y = - $\frac{4}{17}$ x - $\frac{2}{7}$ ← in slope- intercept form
