Question

how to write the slope intercept form of:

x - 6y = -30

Answer 1

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{x}-6\mathrm{y}=-30 \\ \mathrm{dividing}\mathrm{by}-30\mathrm{both}\mathrm{side}\mathrm{we}\mathrm{get}, \\ \frac{\mathrm{x}}{-30}-\frac{6\mathrm{y}}{-30}=\frac{-30}{-30} \\ \frac{\mathrm{x}}{-30}+\frac{6\mathrm{y}}{30}=1 \\ \frac{\mathrm{x}}{-30}+\frac{\mathrm{y}}{5}=1 \\ \mathrm{Now}\mathrm{it}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{reduced}\mathrm{in}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{form}\mathrm{of}\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{a}}+\frac{\mathrm{y}}{\mathrm{b}}=1\mathrm{that}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{in}\mathrm{slop}\mathrm{intercept}\mathrm{form}, \\ \mathrm{where}\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{intercept}=-30\mathrm{and}\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{intercept}=5 \end{gathered}$$
