write an equation that would define the same line as 7x-2y=5

Sagot :

[tex]7x-2y=5[/tex] Original Equation
[tex]-2y=-7x+5[/tex] Subtract 7x from both sides
[tex]y=3.5x-2.5[/tex] Divide by -2 on both sides. MAKE SURE YOU DO IT TO BOTH NUMBERS AND REMEMBER SIGNS :)
This final form is known as slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. The x and y are point values, the m is slope, and b is the y intercept. Another form of the answer with fractions is
[tex] y= \frac{7}{2}x - \frac{5}{2} [/tex]
