How to write an equation from standard form to slope intercept form

The video tutorial explains how to convert an equation into slope intercept form by isolating the Y variable. It covers the process of using inverse operations to undo addition and subtraction, and then dividing to solve for Y. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of expressing the equation in the correct format, ensuring the separation of the MX and B terms.

What is the first step in converting an equation to slope-intercept form?

• Isolating the x-variable

• Isolating the y-variable

• Multiplying both sides by 2

• Adding a constant to both sides

When solving for y, what operation should be undone first?

• Addition or Subtraction

• Exponentiation

• Division

• Multiplication

Why is it important to rearrange terms when solving for y?

• To simplify the equation

• To eliminate the y-variable

• To ensure the x-term is before the constant

• To make the equation look nicer

What must be done to both terms when dividing by a negative number?

• Divide both terms by the negative number

• Subtract the same number from both terms

• Multiply both terms by 2

• Add the same number to both terms

What is the final form of the equation after converting to slope-intercept form?

• y = 2/3x - 8/3

• y = -2x + 8

• y = -3x - 8

• y = 3x + 8
