\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"6x%2B3y=10\" Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3y=10-6x\" Subtract \"6x\" from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3y=-6x%2B10\" Rearrange the terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%28-6x%2B10%29%2F%283%29\" Divide both sides by \"3\" to isolate y.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%28%28-6%29%2F%283%29%29x%2B%2810%29%2F%283%29\" Break up the fraction.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-2x%2B10%2F3\" Reduce.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the equation \"y=-2x%2B10%2F3\" is now in slope intercept form \"y=mx%2Bb\" where the slope is \"m=-2\" and the y-intercept is \"b=10%2F3\" note: the y-intercept is the point
