write the equation in slope-intercept form. then graph the equation.
1. 6x-4y=3
2. 2y+5x=10
can you please help me with at least one of them? thanks!
also, where it says 'then graph the equation', I know we can't graph here, so you can ignore that. but if you know any other sites that could be helpful, I would appreciate if you shared. thanks again!
Sure! I can definitely help you with at least one of the equations. Let's take the first one: 6x - 4y = 3.
To write this equation in slope-intercept form, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. Let's do that step by step:
1. Start with the original equation: 6x - 4y = 3.
2. Subtract 6x from both sides of the equation: -4y = -6x + 3.
3. Divide both sides by -4 to isolate y: y = (6/4)x - 3/4.
Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m represents the slope, and b represents the y-intercept.
In this case, the equation is y = (6/4)x - 3/4. The slope is 6/4, which simplifies to 3/2, and the y-intercept is -3/4.
As for graphing the equation, there are various online graphing tools available that can help you visualize the graph. Some popular options include Desmos (www.desmos.com) and GeoGebra (www.geogebra.org). These websites allow you to enter the equation and see the corresponding graph.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
slope intercept form means solving for y.
6x-4y=3
-4y=-6x+3
y= 3/2 x-3/4
so slope is 3/2 and y intercept is -3/4
regina, in the second part, you ask about the graph. When I was doing this kind of thing, I always used to calculate the x and y intercepts, and then just draw a straight line between.
