This is how you change slope-intercept to standard form.
y=ax+b
subtract (ax) from both sides
-ax+y=b
Make sure the coefficient of x is positive by multiplying through by -1.
If "a" is a fraction then multiply through by the denominator.
Example:
y=1/2 x +5
-1/2 x + y=5
1/2 x - y=-5
x-2y=-10

What is the equation of the line x3y18x3y18 in slope-intercept form?
(3, 18), (3, 18) is just one point: it does not define a line.
What stars do the pyramids of Giza point to?
The Giza Pyramides point to the constellation of Orion and they form on the ground their scheme.
What is the past tense of convert?
Converted. Simply add -ed to change the word to it's past tense form, add will or shall in front of the word to change the word to it's future tense form, and finally, add -ing to the end of a certain word to change it to it's present tense form. Hope I Helped! -Westgunner101
Is fuel and energy the same?
No, fuel helps convert energy into a different form of energy thus making something work
What is bullet form writing?
using those * dot things for every point
Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than slope-intercept form?
You use point-slope form to find the equation of a line if you only have a point and a slope or if you are just given two point. Usually you will convert point-slope form to slope-intercept form to make it easier to use.
Is the point slope equation the same as the point slope intercept form?
no it is different
How do you Convert an equation into slope-intercept form?
Solve it for 'y' .
What is an equation of the line that passes through the point 50 and is perpendicular to the line 5x 6y24 express your answer in slope-intercept form?
Here is how to solve it. First, find the slope of the given line. To do this, solve the equation for "y". That will convert the equation to the slope-intercept form. From there, you can immediately read off the slope. Since parallel lines have the same slope, the line you are looking for will have the same slope. Now you need to use the point-slope form of the equation, with the given point, and the slope you just calculated. Finally, solve this equation for "y" to bring it into the requested slope-intercept form.
What is point slope form and slope intercept form?
y=mx+b is slope-intercept form y - y1 = m(x - x1) is point-slope form Used in algebra based math. On a graph; m is the slope b is the y-intercept x and y represent points
What is point intercept form?
Point slope? y=mx+b M being the slope, and b being the y-intercept.
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point 1 1?
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
Can you change point slope intercept form?
Yes.
How do you convert an equation in standard form to slope-intercept form?
Solve the equation for ' y '.
Point intercept form?
Point intercept form is the almighty form that governs all equations in mathematics involving the variables "X" and "Y", when "X" refers to the independent variable and "Y" refers to the dependent variable. It is the mother of all forms, the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end...... But seriously, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE POINT-INTERCEPT FORM!!!! There IS point-slope form as well as slope-intercept form, but NO point-intercept form.
How do you convert y-2x equals 5 into slope intercept form and graph?
y = 2x+5 whereas 2 is the slope and 5 is the intercept
What is the general form of a line written in slope-intercept form?
The general form of a line written in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis).
