SOLUTION: I do not know how to solve this problem it is not like the first this one is more hard, it is x-4y+2=0 i have added x to each side but then i came up with the equation 4y=2x+1 then

Question 180038: I do not know how to solve this problem it is not like the first this one is more hard, it is x-4y+2=0 i have added x to each side but then i came up with the equation 4y=2x+1 then i divided each side by 4 and got this equation y=2x+4 is that right? if it is not could you show me how to work it out? thank you

x-4y+2=0. I assume you are trying to get this in slope intercept form y=mx+b
:
-4y=-x-2.......subtracted x and 2 from both sides
:
y=(1/4)x+(1/2)........divided all terms by -4
