2x-2/3y=1/2(x-4) and -1/2x +3/8y=6

Question

Rewrite the equations above in slope-intercept form (isolate the Y variable)

Answer 1

I assume you mean: 2x-(2/3)y=(1/2)(x-4)

Multiply the equation by 6

12x-4y=3x-12

Collect terms

9x+12=4y

y=(9/4)x + 3...slope is 9/4 and y-intercept is 3

I assume you mean: (-1/2)x + (3/8)y=6

Start out by multiplying by 8, then proceed as in the problem above.
