Question

How do you write y-5 =3(x-4) in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is B y=3x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

y-5=3(x-4)

first distribute

y-5=3x-12

then get y by itself by combining like terms

y-5=3x-12

+5       +5

y=3x-7

and there you go the answer is B y=3x-7

If brainiest is earned its greatly appreciated.

Answer 2

Answer:

B. y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation in the point-slope form.

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

$y-5=3(x-4)$      use the distributive property:  a(b + c) = ab + ac

$y-5=(3)(x)+(3)(-4)$

$y-5=3x-12$         add 5 to btoh sides

$y-5+5=3x-12+5$

$y=3x-7$
