What is the best first step to write this linear equation in slope-intercept form?

y - 2/3x = 4

A) The equation is already in slope-intercept form
B) Multiply 3/2 on both sides of the equals sign
C) Add 2/3x on both sides of the equals sign
D) Subtract y on both sides of the equals sign

Respuesta :

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the statement we have the following equation:

[tex]y- \frac {2} {3} x = 4[/tex]

To write the equation of the slope-intersection form we must add[tex]\frac {2} {3} x[/tex]to both sides of the equation:

[tex]y- \frac {2} {3} x +\frac {2} {3} x = \frac {2} {3} x+4\\y = \frac {2} {3} x+4[/tex]

Answer:

The correct option is option C

Answer:

c add 2/3x on both sides of the equals sign
