Question

rewrite the following equation in slope - intercept form.
-7y = 4x - 5
write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate y by dividing all terms by -7

$\frac{-7y}{-7} = \frac{4x}{-7} - \frac{5}{-7}$

Step2: Simplify each fraction

$y = -\frac{4}{7}x + \frac{5}{7}$

Answer:

$y = -\frac{4}{7}x + \frac{5}{7}$
