Question 604781: can you help me..because it so confusing..how to find the slope and y-intercept in this equation ??
x+y/2=4
thank you..
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve for y
x+y/2=4
y/2=4-x
y=2*(4-x)
y = 8 - 2x
y = -2x + 8
The equation is now in y = mx+b form where the slope is m and the y-intercept is (0,b).
In this case, m = -2. So the slope is -2
Also, b = 8. So the y-intercept is (0,8)
Hope this helps. If not, let me know.
