Re-write the equation 2y+4x=11 in the form y=mx+c and state the gradient and the y-intercept.

Nina,

To get from 2y+4x=11 to slope intercept form (y=mx+c) you have to solve for y

2y+4x=11
-4x -4x (get y alone on one side of the equation)
2y/2=(-4x+11)/2 (this will remove the co efficient from y)

y=-2x+11/2

so your slope is m=-2
and you y intercept is 11/2
