I'll do the first one to get you started.
# 1
Start with the first equation.
Subtract from both sides.
Divide both sides by to isolate .
Simplify.
So the equation is now in slope intercept form where the slope is and the y-intercept is , which is the point (0,-12).
--------------------------------------------------
Start with the second equation.
Subtract from both sides.
Divide both sides by to isolate .
Simplify.
So the equation is now in slope intercept form where the slope is and the y-intercept is , which is the point )
.
