Question

Write the equation in slope intercept form

12x-9y=-9

Answer 1

y =
`(4)/(3)` x + 1

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given

12x - 9y = - 9 ( subtract 12x from both sides )

- 9y = - 12x - 9 ( divide through by - 9 )

`(-9)/(-9)` y =
`(-12)/(-9)` x +
`(-9)/(-9)` ( simplify both sides )

y =
`(4)/(3)` x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form
