How do you write -x+3y=6 in slope intercept form?
2 answers:
Commenter jdoe said it right: solve for y and leave the rest on the other side.
-x + 3y = 6
3y = 6 + x add x on both sides
3y = x + 6 rearrange to get the x first
y = (x + 6) /3 divide both sides by 3
y = x/3 + 6/3 split the numerator (caution - never split denominators)
y = x/3 + 2 simplify 6/3
Thus the line in slope intercept form of y = mx + b is y =

Answer:
10 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the triangle (A') = 1/2bh
A' = 1/2bh............ Equation 1
Where b = base of the triangle, h = height of the triangle
From the diagram,
Given: b = 12.5 unit, h = 4 unit
Substitute into equation 1
A' = 1/2(12.5)(4)
A' = 25 squared unit.
Also,
Area of the rectangle (A) = Lenght(L)×width(w)
A = Lw............ Equation 2
From the question,
If the area of the rectangle is 40% larger than the area of the triangle
Therefore,
A = 1.4A'
A = 1.4(25)
A = 35 squared unit.
Also given: w = 3 = 7/2
Substitute into equation 2
35 = L×7/2
7L = 35×2
7L = 70
L = 70/7
L = 10 units
