    i don't understand how to.
    switch this equation -2y=6x-4 into a y=mx+b to graph it. I looked over my notes and I don't find an example like it, so if somebody can give me a hint or a clue about what I have to do it would really help me out :rolleyes:


    oh by the way this is algebra 1, slope

    -2y = 6x - 4
    divide both sides of the equation by -2. -2y / -2 = y; 6x / -2 = -3x; -4 / -2 = +2
    y = -3x + 2

    viola! y = mx + b where m = -3, b = +2
