SOLUTION: Choose the correct equation for 3x + 4y = 8 in slope intercept form.
y = (-3/4)x + 2
y = (4/3)x + 2
y = (-4/3)x - 2
y = -3x + 8

Question 148482: Choose the correct equation for 3x + 4y = 8 in slope intercept form.
y = (-3/4)x + 2
y = (4/3)x + 2
y = (-4/3)x - 2
y = -3x + 8

Remember, the "slope-intercept" form is:
y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept at (0,b)
.
So, for your problem, we start by manipulating it into the "slope-intercept" form:
3x + 4y = 8
subtract 3x from both sides:
4y = -3x + 8
dividing both sides by 4:
y = (-3/4)x + 2
Which is the FIRST solution given.
