Question

8x+6y=18
Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = - \frac{4}{3} x + 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form

y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

8x +6y= 18

Move everything that is not a y term to the right side of the equation:

6y= -8x +18

Divide both sides by 6 so that the coefficient of y is 1:

$y = - \frac{8}{6} x + \frac{18}{6}$

$y = - \frac{4}{3} x + 3$
