Solve each equation for y in slope intercept form?

Question

1.)   2y+6x=8

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.) 2x-5y=25

 

 

Answer 1

Hi Juliana,

Part One:

2y+6x=8 Subtract 6x from both sides

2y=8-6x Rearrange

2y=-6x+8 Divide all terms by 2

y=-3x+4

Part Two:

2x-5y=25 Subtract 2x from both sides

-5y=25-2x Rearrange

-5y=-2x+25 Divide both sides by -5

y=[(2x)/5]-5

Best,
