Examples

3 x + 4 y = - 5

$3 x + 4 y = - 5$

Step 1

The slope-intercept form is

$y = m x + b$ , where

$m$ is the slope and

$b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Step 2

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Step 2.1

Subtract

$3 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$4 y = - 5 - 3 x$

Step 2.2

Divide each term in

$4 y = - 5 - 3 x$ by

$4$ and simplify.

Step 2.2.1

Divide each term in

$4 y = - 5 - 3 x$ by

$4$ .

$\frac{4 y}{4} = \frac{- 5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

Step 2.2.2

Simplify the left side.

Step 2.2.2.1

Cancel the common factor of

$4$ .

Step 2.2.2.1.1

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{4 y}{4} = \frac{- 5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

Step 2.2.2.1.2

Divide

$y$ by

$1$ .

$y = \frac{- 5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

$y = \frac{- 5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

$y = \frac{- 5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

Step 2.2.3

Simplify the right side.

Step 2.2.3.1

Simplify each term.

Step 2.2.3.1.1

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{5}{4} + \frac{- 3 x}{4}$

Step 2.2.3.1.2

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3 x}{4}$

$y = - \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3 x}{4}$

$y = - \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3 x}{4}$

$y = - \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3 x}{4}$

Step 2.3

Write in

$y = m x + b$ form.

Step 2.3.1

Reorder

$- \frac{5}{4}$ and

$- \frac{3 x}{4}$ .

$y = - \frac{3 x}{4} - \frac{5}{4}$

Step 2.3.2

Reorder terms.

$y = - (\frac{3}{4} x) - \frac{5}{4}$

Step 2.3.3

Remove parentheses.

$y = - \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{5}{4}$

$y = - \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{5}{4}$

$y = - \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{5}{4}$
