The equation y-5-6(x+1) is written in point-slope form. What is the equation written in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

y = 6x + 11

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form ⇒ y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is y-intercept

So, we need to change point-slope form to slope-intercept form

The given equation: y - 5 = 6 (x+1)

∴ y - 5 = 6x + 6 add 5 to each side of the equation

∴ y = 6x + 6 + 5

∴ y = 6x + 11

So, the equation written in slope-intercept form is y = 6x + 11
