Question 245694: I need help with this problem 2y=7, I need to change the equation to slope-intercept form. I tried dividing both sides by 2 but, I'm missing m and b. The slope-intercept form form is y=mx+b.


Thanks for your help!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It is possible for 'm' to be equal to zero. You're on the right track. If you divide both sides by 2, you get y=7%2F2 which is in y=mx%2Bb form where m=0 and b=7%2F2. If you can't see it, then write y=7%2F2 as y=0x%2B7%2F2 (which is perfectly valid).
