Slope intercept form is y = mx+b, so you can see that you set the equation equal to y. So if the equation is 2y+3x=6, then you solve for y to put it in slope intercept form.
2y + 3x = 6
2y = -3x + 6
y = (-3/2)x + 3
Keep in mind that the term with the x has to be before the constant, so it can't be y = 3 -(3/2)x
And by the way m is the slope and b is y-intercept, so in <span>y = (-3/2)x + 3, -3/2 is slope and (0,3) is y-intercept</span>
Complete question :
Carly purchased 9 1/2 pints of ice cream for a party. If each guest will be served exactly 3/5 pint of ice cream, what is the greatest number of gusts that Carly can serve
Answer:
15 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total pints of icecream = 9 1/2
Fraction of ice cream pints per guest = 3/5 pints
Number of guest that can be served :
Total pints / fraction per guest
9 1/2 ÷ 3/5
19/2 * 5/3
95 / 6
= 15.8 guest
Hence, greatest Number of guest that can be served = 15
