Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form. 5x - 4y > -20 Write your answer with y first, followed by an inequality symbol. Use integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.
Q. Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form. 5x−4y>−20 Write your answer with y first, followed by an inequality symbol. Use integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.
Identify Equation Form: Identify the slope-intercept form of an equation.The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Isolate y in Inequality: Isolate y in the inequality 5x - 4y > -20. To isolate y, we need to move the term 5x to the other side of the inequality by subtracting 5x from both sides. 5x - 4y - 5x > -20 - 5x -4y > -5x - 20
Divide Terms to Solve: Divide each term by −4 to solve for y. When we divide each term by −4, we must remember to reverse the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number. \frac{-4y}{-4} < \frac{-5x}{-4} - \frac{20}{-4} y < \frac{5}{4}x + 5
