Solve my homework problemIt's about using slope intercept form One problem is 2y equals 8x-2?

Answer 1

I shall do this one , but you must do the rest otherwise you will not learn.

2y = 8x - 2 is the given eq'n/

The straight line form is y = mx + c'.

'm' is the slope/gradient of the line

'c' is the y-intercept.

So divide both sides by '2' ; this will result in 'y = '

Hence

y = (8/2)x - 2/2

y = 4x - 1 is the straight line form of y = mx + c.

So the slope is m = 4

The y-intercept is c = -1

NB for all linear equations this is the method.

NNB Linear eq'n may appear in various forms.

2y = 8x - 2

2y - 8x = -2

2y - 8x + 2 = 0

y - 4x + 1 = 0

etc.,

So you need to algebraically rearrange into the y = mx + c form

However, if there are powers of 'x' or 'y' it is NOT a straight line.

Hope that helps!!!!

Answer 2

what is the yintercept for y=2/3x-8
