1/2x+1/8y=3

Solve in Slope Intercept form.

Answer:

y = 4x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the number in front of the x-value.

Slope intercept form is in the form of

y = mx + b  (or as how I learned it)

m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (the number that is left on the side.)

You can rearrange this by moving the x to the right side by subtracting it from both sides.

You now have 1/8y = 3 - 1/2x

which can be rearranged to

1/8y = -1/2x + 3.

You need to change the y to 1 whole instead of 1/8, so you multiply it by 8 since 8 divided by 8 is 1.

y = -4x + 24
