Find the slope and y-intercept of the following equation, -30x-3y+600=0
To find the slope and y-intercept of the equation -30x - 3y + 600 = 0, we need to rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
-30x - 3y + 600 = 0
To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we need to isolate the y variable. First, we can start by subtracting 600 from both sides of the equation:
-30x - 3y = -600
Next, we need to isolate the y variable by dividing the equation by -3:
(1/-3) * (-30x - 3y) = (1/-3) * (-600)
10x + y = 200
Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form. We can see that the slope (m) is 10, and the y-intercept (b) is 200.
