The equation for slope is.........

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To start off.....

1st subtract b from both sides

2nd divide both sides by m

Y=mx+b

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

y=mx+b

Solve for x

y-b=mx

y-b/x=m

y-b/x=m

Do yourself.....

OBJECTIVE: solve for y

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OK, now that you have figured it out check yourself

1st subtract 3x from both sides

2nd divide both sides by 2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1st distribute

2nd combine like terms

3x+2y=8

&

7x-10=6(11-2x)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) 3x+2y=8

2y=-3+8

y=-3/2+4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2) 7x-10=6(11-2x)

7x-10=66-12x

19x-10=66

19x=76
