Question

How do you write `x+2y=4` into slope intercept form?

Answer 1

`y=-1/2x+2`

Explanation:

Slope intercept form can be represented as `y=mx +b`
To get an equation into this form, we should try to get `y` all alone.

From `x+2y=4`
first, we can subtract `x` from both sides
and get `2y = -x + 4`
then, we can divide both sides by `2`
to get `=>y=-1/2x+2`
which is now in slope intercept form :)
