What is the slope-intercept form of the equation -7x+3y=8 ?

Question

Doing math homework but cannot understand...help?

Answer 1

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

 

-7x + 3y = 8

3y = 7x + 8

y = 7/3 x + 8/3

 

The slope is 7/3 and the y-intercept is 8
