Question

or
Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form.
8x+y≤16
Write your answer with y first, followed by an inequality symbol. Use integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

To convert the inequality \( 8x + y \leq 16 \) into slope-intercept form (which is \( y = mx + b \)), we need to isolate \( y \).

1. Start with the original inequality:
\[
8x + y \leq 16
\]

2. Subtract \( 8x \) from both sides:
\[
y \leq -8x + 16
\]

So the inequality in slope-intercept form is:
\[
y \leq -8x + 16
\]
