example 1: write an equation that describes each line in slope-intercept form. slope=1/2, y-intercept=9 explanation: the slope is the (x) variable meaning, you insert the (x) slope and (y) intercept for (b) in slope form [y=mx+b]. so, y=(x)slope +b y=1/2x+b then b is (y) intercept. so, y=1/2x+(y) intercept y=1/2x+9 **answer: y=1/2x+9**

example 2: how to convert 2x+y=17 into slope intercept form. formula: y=mx+b explanation: the basics of this problem is re-arrannging the problem so it shows as slope intercept form. problem: 2x+y=17 the (y) is always first. the slope goes in the middle by subtracting 2x from both sides. b/ y-intercept goes last in the equation **answer: y=-2x+17**
