Rearranging equation into standard form (y=mx+b)


	Algebra I: Rearranging equation into standard form (y=mx+b)

In this mini-lesson, we cover how to rearrange a given equation into the standard form (y = mx + b). This is called the slope-intercept form, where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept. For example, to rearrange an equation 2x - 9y = 3, we can isolate y variable on left side and rewrite the equation. Thus, we will arrive at an equation of the form y = mx + b, where m = 2/9 and b = -1/3.
