Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form.
0 = 18x + 6y – 2
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.
+9479 Slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b
We want to get the y by itself on one side of the equation.
0 = 18x + 6y – 2
First let's subtract 6y from both sides.
-6y = 18x – 2
Next let's divide both sides by -6.
y = (18 / -6)x - (2 / -6)
y = -3x + 1/3
...The last instructions are kind of confusing to me, but I think that is the answer you're after. :)
