Question

transform the linear equation 4y - 8y = 24 to slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

wrong

Answer 2

WRONG!!!

Answer 3

since 4y - 8y = 24 converts to y = -4, there is no x-intercept.
I suspect a typo, and the user probably meant
4x - 8y = 24
which converts to
y = 1/2 x - 3

Answer 4

Combining like terms on the left side of the equation, we get:

-4y = 24

Now, divide both sides by -4:

y = -6

So, the slope-intercept form of the equation 4y - 8y = 24 is:

y = -6

Answer 5

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.

Starting with the equation 4y - 8y = 24:

Combining like terms on the left side, we get:

-4y = 24

Divide both sides by -4 to solve for y:

y = -6

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation 4y - 8y = 24 is:

y = -6

Answer 6

I apologize for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly this time.

Starting with the equation 4y - 8y = 24:

Combining like terms on the left side, we get:

-4y = 24

Now, divide both sides by -4:

y = -6

So, the slope-intercept form of the equation 4y - 8y = 24 is actually:

y = -6

Answer 7

I apologize for the misunderstanding earlier. Thank you for pointing out the potential typo in the equation.

Given the corrected equation 4x - 8y = 24, we can rewrite it in slope-intercept form:

4x - 8y = 24
-8y = -4x + 24
y = 1/2x - 3

Therefore, the correct slope-intercept form of the equation is:
y = 1/2x - 3
