write the equation in slope intercept form what are the slope and Y intercept -2x -11y=5
The slope-intercept form of a straight line:
y = m x + b
where
m is the slope
b is y-intercept
In this case:
- 2 x - 11 y = 5
Add 2 x to both sides
- 11 y = 2 x + 5
Divide both sides by - 11
y = - 2 / 11 x - 5 / 11
slope = - 2 / 11
y-intercept = - 5 / 11
y = m x + b ... m is the slope , b is the y-intercept
y = -2/11 x - 5/11
Why did the linear equation go to the comedy club? To find its slope and Y intercept!
Let's turn that frowning equation into a laughing slope-intercept form! Here's how it goes:
-2x - 11y = 5
To get the equation into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. So, let's rearrange things:
-11y = 2x + 5
Now, let's divide everything by -11 to solve for y:
y = (-2/11)x - 5/11
And there you have it! The slope of this equation is -2/11, and the Y intercept is -5/11. Remember, comedy comes in all slopes and intercepts!
To write the equation in slope intercept form, which is in the form of y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.
Given the equation -2x - 11y = 5, let's rearrange the equation to isolate y:
First, we can start by moving the -2x term to the right side of the equation:
-11y = 2x + 5
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -11 to solve for y:
y = (2/(-11))x + (5/(-11))
Simplifying the equation further:
y = (-2/11)x - 5/11
Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form, where the slope (m) is -2/11 and the y-intercept (b) is -5/11.
