You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Looks like you had a \"typo\" while you keyed in your problem.
\n" ); document.write( "6x-4x+8=0
\n" ); document.write( "Perhaps you meant:
\n" ); document.write( "6x-4y+8=0 (I'll assume this. If not, please write back)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Slope-intercept form is:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "m is slope
\n" ); document.write( "b is the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Starting with your equation:
\n" ); document.write( "6x-4y+8=0
\n" ); document.write( "adding 4y to both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "6x+8 = 4y
\n" ); document.write( "dividing both sides by 4:
\n" ); document.write( "(6/4)x + 2 = y
\n" ); document.write( "(3/2)x + 2 = y
\n" ); document.write( "flipping it around, we get:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (3/2)x + 2
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "slope is 3/2
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept is at (0,2)
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
