Q. Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.15y−6x=60Answer:
Isolate y-term: Isolate the y-term on one side of the equation.To do this, we will add 6x to both sides of the equation 15y−6x=60.Calculation: 15y−6x+6x=60+6xSimplifying, we get 15y=6x+60.
Divide by coefficient: Divide every term by the coefficient of y to solve for y. The coefficient of y is 15, so we divide each term by 15. Calculation: y=156x+60
Simplify equation: Simplify the equation by dividing each term inside the parentheses by 15.Calculation: y=(156)x+(1560)Simplifying the fractions, we get y=(52)x+4.
