Question

Simplify the answers and write any fractions in lowest terms

 

The slope of the line is =7/2

 

The Y- intercept of the line is = -1/2

 

 

The slope intercept form is Y =    ?

 

 

Thank You ....

Answer 1

2 = 14x - 4y

So what we need to do to make this a slope-intercept equation is to isolate the y variable. Start by subtracting 14x:

-4y = -14x + 2

Now we divide by -4:

y = ¹⁴/₄ x - ¹/₂

simplify:

y = ⁷/₂ x - ¹/₂
