Q. Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.4x+6y=−18Answer:
Isolate y: Solve for y to put the equation into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.First, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. We can start by subtracting 4x from both sides of the equation 4x+6y=−18.Calculation: 6y=−4x−18
Divide by 6: Now, we divide every term by 6 to solve for y.Calculation: y=6−4x−618
Simplify fractions: Simplify the fractions in the equation.Calculation: y=3−2x−3
