Question

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line. 18x + 4y = 112 A)-9/2; 1/28 B)-2/9 ; 28 C)18; 112 D)-9/2; 28

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is -9/2 and the y intercept is 28

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to put this in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

18x + 4y = 112

Subtract 18x from each side

18x+4y-18x = -18x+112

4y = -18x+112

Divide each side by 4

4y/4 = -18x/4 +112/4

y = -9/2x + 28

The slope is -9/2 and the y intercept is 28
