How do you get why by itself in this equation? 4x+5y=5

Alja [10]3 years ago

Answer:

first we get y on one side by itself.

4x+5y=5

we'll move x to the other side.

4x-4x+5y=5-4x

simplify.

5y=5-4x

now we get rid of the coefficient on y.

5y/5=(5-4x)/5

simplify.

y=5/5-4x/5

y=1- \frac{4}{5}x

The answer is y=1-\frac{4}{5}x

9. Given 8x+4y = 4, identify the slope and y-intercept.
Elden [556K]

Answer:

A) Slope = -2 and y-int = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to get the slope and y-intercept from an equation is to put it in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So, let's subtract 8x from both sides, leaving 4y on the left side:

8x + 4y = 4 -> 4y = -8x + 4

Now, let's divide both sides by 4, so that we can have just y on the left side:

y = -2x + 1

-2 is the slope, and 1 is the y-intercept.
