solve for "y" so it is in the form y = mx + b. "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.
ax + by = c
by = -ax + c <em>subtracted "ax" from both sides</em>
y = (-a/b)x + c/b <em>divided both sides by "b"</em>
Answer: slope is -a/b and y-intercept is c/b
Answer:
let x=rate of the rowing team in still water
x+4=rate of the rowing team with current
x-4=rate of the rowing team against current
travel time=distance/rate
..
90%2F%28x%2B4%29=10%2F%28x-4%29
90x-360=10x+40
80x=400
x=5 rate of the rowing team in still water=5 mph
