Isolating y (Writing an equation in Slope Intercept form)

You only have only one attempt at this quiz

• True

• That is correct

• There are not multiple attempts

• This quiz is testing your ability to solve for y.

Isolate "y" in the following equation

3x + y = 12

• y = -3x +12

• x = y + 4

• x = y + 12

• y = 3x -12

When converting the equation

2x + 4y = 8

into slope-intercept form, the first step to solve for y would be to

• subtract 2x from each side

• subtract 8 from each side

• add 8 to each side

• divide each side by 4

After subtracting 2x from each side, the resulting equation is shown below:

2x - 3y = -9

- 3y = -2x - 9

The final step to solve for y would be to ____________.

• divide each term by 3

• divide each term by -3

• add 3 to each side

• subtract 3 from each side

• Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation

• Add 3 to both sides of the equation

• Divide each side by 2

• Distribute -9 to everything in the parentheses

Solve this equation for y: 

-6x+3y=9

• y = 2x + 9

• y = 2x + 3

• y = 6x - 3

• y = 6x + 9

• y = -8x + 16

• y = -2x + 4

• y = -4x +8

• y = -8x + 12

2y + 18 = 6(x - 1)

• y = 3x + 12

• y = 3x - 6

• y = 3x - 12

• y = 3x + 6

• y = 1/2x - 2

• y = 1/2x

• y = 1/2x + 2

• y = 1/2x + 8

What is the slope intercept form of the equation

4x - 8y - 72=0

• y = -4x + 72

• y = 1/2x - 9

• y = -4x - 9

• y = 4x + 9
