Write 0.4x+0.2y=0.6 in slope-intercept form.

3 answers

To write the equation 0.4x + 0.2y = 0.6 in slope-intercept form, we need to solve for y.

First, subtract 0.4x from both sides:
0.2y = -0.4x + 0.6

Next, divide both sides by 0.2 to isolate y:
y = (-0.4/0.2)x + 0.6/0.2

Simplifying the right side gives:
y = -2x + 3

Thus, the equation 0.4x + 0.2y = 0.6 in slope-intercept form is y = -2x + 3.
is this right?
Yes, my previous response is correct. The equation 0.4x + 0.2y = 0.6 is equivalent to y = -2x + 3 when written in slope-intercept form.
