We learned how to solve simple questions with Y and X intercept relations.
Example y=x-5. The y intercept of this question would be -5. Because we would need divide the quantity of Y’s by the end number. With here ONE y divide -5 is basically 1/-5 is just -5.
This would be the same with 2y=x-60. I take the 2 y’s and divide it by -60 making it 2/-60=30. The y-intercept would be -30.
There are some equations that look different but are the same. 2y+3x-12=0. You would need to take the 12 and add 12 to both sides of the equation to cancel it out on one side in order to move it. Then it would look like this. 2y+3x=12. Finding intercepts are the same. For y as we know we take the 2 from the 2y and divide it by 12. 2/12=6 which is the y-intercept. Now X is the same. take the 3 and divide it by 12. 3/12=4 and x-intercept is now 4.
Y=mX+b. “mX” being the slope and b is y-intercept. With run and rise.
