Solve for yy.. Since <span>8x8x</span> does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right side of the equation by subtracting <span>8x8x</span> from both sides. <span>−2y=−8x+12-2y=-8x+12 </span>Divide each term by <span>−2-2</span> and simplify. ...<span>y=4x−<span>6 </span></span>The slope-intercept form is <span>y=mx+by=mx+b</span>, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept. <span>y=mx+by=mx+b </span>Find the values of mm and bb using the form <span>y=mx+by=mx+b</span>. <span>m=4m=4</span><span>b=−6b=-6 </span>The slope of the line is the value of mm, and the y-intercept is the value of bb. Slope: 44Y-Intercept: <span>−6</span><span>
95 represents the initial amount the contractor charges. 3.50x represents $3.50 times the amount of square feet bieng poured. You add these two terms together to get your total amount owed to the contractor.
