When (8x+4y=28) is written in (y=mx+c) form, what are the slope and (y)-intercept?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(m=-2,\ c=7\)

Move \(8x\) to the other side: \(4y=-8x+28\). Dividing by 4 gives \(y=-2x+7\). Comparing this with \(y=mx+c\), we get \(m=-2\) and \(c=7\). In option A, the y-intercept is correct, but the negative sign of the slope is missing. Exam tip: For \(Ax+By=C\), divide the whole equation by the coefficient of \(y\) after isolating the \(y\)-term.
