Learning Objective
I can convert linear equations between slope-intercept form and standard form.
- 1
To convert from standard form to slope-intercept form, you must isolate the y value.
- 2
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.
- 3
When converting from slope-intercept form to standard form, eliminate fractions by multiplying all terms by the least common multiple of the denominators, and ensure the coefficient of x is positive.
