Exercise 2 Page 78

Apply inverse operations to isolate y.

y=4/3x+1/3

Practice makes perfect
Rewriting any linear equation in the slope-intercept form requires us to isolate the y-variable. To do this, we will use the Properties of Equality to apply inverse operations on the equation.
-4x+3y=1
3y=4x+1
â–Ľ
Solve for y
y=4x+1/3
y=4x/3+1/3
y=4/3x+1/3
