Y intercept form ..how do you turn this into y=mx+b

Question

2y-1=6x-3

Answer 1

the equation is: 2y-1=6x-3

in order to get the equation into y-intercept form, we have to get y by itself. therefore, our goal will be to solve the equation for y.

1) let's add 1 to each side of the equation. this gives the equation

1+2y-1=6x-3+1

if we simplify:

2y=6x-2

2) let's divide each side by 2

(2y)/2 = (6x-2)/2

if we simplify:

y=(6x-2)/2

if we simplify: y = 3x-1

we now have y by itself in y-intercept form y = mx+b where m =3 and b =-1

Answer 2

Simply solve for y from the given equation.
