What is the answer for this equation to put it in slope-intercept formula: y-2=-5/3(x-4)
Since you have a denominator of 3, multiply 3 times both sides:
3[y - 2] = 3[ -5/3(x - 4) ] When you multiply by 3, multiply only the first factor, not both of them.
3y - 6 = -5(x - 4) Use distributive property.
3y - 6 = -5x + 20 Add 6 to both sides.
3y = -5x + 26 Divide both sides by 3.
y = (-5/3)x + (26/3)
