Question

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C. Rewrite this equation in slope-slope-intercept form. What is the slope? What is the y-intercept?

Answer 1

Standard form is Ax + By = C, or By = C - Ax.

Dividing both sides by B, we get y = C/B - (A/B)x

Here the y intercept is C/B, and the slope is -A/B.
