How do you find the slope and intercept of #4x + 7y = 51#?

Answer 1

Slope: (-4/7)
y-intercept: (51/7)

4x+7y=51 It is important to take the first equation, in standard form, and change it to slope-intercept form. First subtract 4x from each side: 4x-4x+7y=-4x+51 7y=-4+51 Next, divide each side by 7 because you want to make the equation equal to y: #(7y)/7#=#(-4x+51)/7# y=#(-4/7)#x+#(51/7)# Slope: #(-4/7)# y-intercept: #(51/7)#

To find the slope and intercept of the equation (4x + 7y = 51), rearrange it into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where (m) is the slope and (b) is the y-intercept. Then, solve for (m) and (b).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
