Question

4x + 2y < 10
what is this inequality in slope intercept form

Answer 1

Answer:

y < -2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. In this case y < mx + b.

First we want to keep the y term (2y) by itself on one side. To do this we put 4x on the left of the less than sign and switch the operation of 4x. From 4x to -4x.

2y < -4x + 10

Now instead of 2y we need to get just y by itself. Once again we are going to switch the operation. This time from multiplication to division. We will divide both -4x and 10 by 2 and get rid of the 2 next to the y.

y < -2x + 5

I hope thay made sense.
