$1 x + 1.9 y = 468$

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 2.2.3.1.1

Divide $468$ by $1.9$ .

$y = 246.31578947 + \frac{- 1 x}{1.9}$

Step 2.2.3.1.2

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = 246.31578947 - \frac{1 x}{1.9}$

Step 2.2.3.1.3

Factor $1$ out of $1 x$ .

$y = 246.31578947 - \frac{1 (x)}{1.9}$

Step 2.2.3.1.4

Factor $1.9$ out of $1.9$ .

$y = 246.31578947 - \frac{1 (x)}{1.9 (1)}$

Step 2.2.3.1.5

Separate fractions.

$y = 246.31578947 - (\frac{1}{1.9} \cdot \frac{x}{1})$

Step 2.2.3.1.6

Divide $1$ by $1.9$ .

$y = 246.31578947 - (0.52631579 \frac{x}{1})$

Step 2.2.3.1.7

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$y = 246.31578947 - (0.52631579 x)$

Step 2.2.3.1.8

Multiply $0.52631579$ by $- 1$ .

$y = 246.31578947 - 0.52631579 x$

Step 2.3

Reorder $246.31578947$ and $- 0.52631579 x$ .

$y = - 0.52631579 x + 246.31578947$
