Question

What is the slope and y intercept of X=-13/2 - 2/7y

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope = -7/2

y intercept = -91/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line

x =  $\frac{-13}{2}$ - $\frac{2}{7}$ y

We know that in the equation y = mx + c, m is slope and c is y intercept,

So bring the given equation to above form,

x =  $\frac{-13}{2}$ - $\frac{2}{7}$ y

x = $\frac{-91-4y}{14}$

14x = -91 -4y

4y = -14x-91

y = $\frac{-14x}{4}$  $\frac{-91}{4}$

comparing above equation with y= mx+c

slope, m = $\frac{-14}{4}$ = $\frac{-7}{2}$

y intercept, c = $\frac{-91}{4}$
