y=3x−50
y is equal to 3 x minus 50

−y=−3x+50
negative y is equal to negative 3 x plus 50

y=−3x+50
y is equal to negative 3 x plus 50

−y=3x−50

Answer 1

To transform the equation \(3x - y = 50\) into slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\), we need to solve for \(y\).

Starting with the original equation:
\[
3x - y = 50
\]

Subtract \(3x\) from both sides:
\[
-y = -3x + 50
\]

Now, multiply both sides by \(-1\) to solve for \(y\):
\[
y = 3x - 50
\]

Thus, the equation in slope-intercept form is:
\[
y = 3x - 50
\]

So the correct response is:
**y = 3x - 50**.
