Question

Rewrite the following equation in slope intercept form7x + 19y = -7Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions.Can this be simplified?If so what it is it?

Answer 1

y = -7x/19 - 7/19

Step-by-step explanation:

To rewrite in slope-intercept form, we use the formula:

y = mx + b

7x + 19y = -7

Rewritting by making y the subject of formula:

19y = -7x - 7

DIvide both sides by 19 to make the coefficient of y to be 1:

19y/19 = -7x/19 - 7/19

y = -7x/19 - 7/19

The equation in slope intercept form:

y = -7x/19 - 7/19
