Question

what is the slope intercept form of the line given by the equation 16x - 4y = 24? (fill each blank with an integer. any fractions should be in simplest form, and in improper form if necessary) y = □ x - □

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the $y$-term

$16x - 4y = 24 \implies -4y = -16x + 24$

Step2: Solve for $y$

Divide all terms by $-4$:
$\frac{-4y}{-4} = \frac{-16x}{-4} + \frac{24}{-4}$

Step3: Simplify each term

$y = 4x - 6$

Answer:

$y = 4x - 6$
