Answer:
slope =
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
2x - 3y = 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
- 3y = - 2x + 12 ( divide all terms by - 3 )
y = x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m =
For each equation give X a value and solve for Y, do this at least two times for each equation.
Plot those dots on a graph to draw two lines.
The solution is where the two lines cross.
You will see the lines cross at (-1,-2)
Divide by 2/2
6/5
If you need it converted to an improper fraction it would be 1 1/5
