Question 247960: Write each equation in slope intercept form
3x-4y=80
2x+3y=90

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The standard Slope-Intercept Form of a Line looks like this: y=mx%2Bb
Therefore, you need to re-arrange your equations in this order to answer the question.

3x-4y=80
-4y=-3x%2B80
y=%28-3x%2F-4%29%2B%2880%2F-4%29
y=%283%2F4%29x-20 <--- here's your first problem solved.

Can you do the second one? 2x%2B3y=90

Steps:
1. Deduct 2x from both sides of equation.
2. Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation.
3. Simplify.
4. Ensure you have all terms in the correct order.

Done!
