Question

Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form. 5x + 7y = 7 Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:
y = (-5/7) x + 1

Explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the line has the following formula:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

The given is:
5x + 7y = 7

To put this in slope-intercept form, we will need to isolate the y as follows:
5x + 7y = 7
7y = -5x + 7
y = (-5/7) x + (7/7)
y = (-5/7) x + 1
where:
m is the slope = -5/7
c is the y-intercept = 1

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Y=0
5x= 7
X= 7/5

X=0
7y=7
Y=1
