Math Problem Statement
Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form.
4x − 19y = 1
Solution
To rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form, which is , where is the slope and is the y-intercept, follow these steps:
-
Start with the original equation:
-
Isolate on one side. First, subtract from both sides:
-
Now, divide every term by to solve for :
So, the slope-intercept form of the equation is:
