Question

What is the slope-intercept form of the following equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=-x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must know the format of slope-intercept form!

This is: $y=mx+b$ (where "m" is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

Given this equation: $2x+2y=20$   we must convert this into the format of slope-intercept form.

First, we should move the "2x" to the other side of the equation, we do this by subtracting -2x from 2x and proceed to move it to the other side.

This would be result in: $2y=-2x+20$

Next, we need to isolate the "y" variable by dividing the 2 off of it.

What you do to one side you do to the other!

-2 / 2 is -1 so this will just be "-x"

20 / 2 is 10

Therefore, our resulting equation will be: $y = -x+10$
