Write in slope intercept form 6x+2y=8

Gwar [14]

Answer:

y = -3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form : y = mx +b

6x + 2y = 8

2y = -6x + 8

Divide the entire equation by 2

$\dfrac{2y}{2}=\dfrac{-6x}{2}+\dfrac{8}{2}$

. Here is an equation 2x + 9 = -15. Write three different equations that have the same solution as 2x + 9 = -15. Show or explain

Anettt [7]

Answer:

1. $x-3=-15$
2. $2x=-24$
3. $2x-3=-27$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$2x+9=-15$

To find three equations that have the same solution as the given equation we have to first solve the equation.

$2x+9=-15$
$9-9=0$
$-15-9=-24$
$2x=-24$
$2x\div2=x$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation one:
$x-3=-15$
$-3+3=0$
$-15+3=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation two:
 $2x=-24$
$2x\div2=x$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation three:
$2x-3=-27$
$-3+3=0$
$-27+3=-24$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Hope this helps.
