Answer:
[tex]y=\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{31}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
Notice how y is isolated in slope-intercept form.
[tex]y+5=\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} (x-7)[/tex]
To change this into slope-intercept form, isolate y.
Use the distributive property on the parentheses:
[tex]y+5=\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{21}{2}[/tex]
Subtract 5 from both sides:
[tex]y=\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{21}{2}-5\\\\y=\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{31}{2}[/tex]
I hope this helps!
