Question

Find the Slope and y-intercept
2(x+1) + 3(y -2) = -7

Answer 1

Explanation:

If we simplify the equation into the form
`y = mx + b` this problem is very easy

`2(x+1)+3(y-2)=-7\\2x+2 + 3y- 6 = -7\\2x + 3y = -3\\3y = -2x -3\\y = (-2)/(3)(x) - 1`

So, the slope is
`(-2)/(3)` and the y-intercept is
`-1`
