Slope intercept form is y = mx + b 2x - 4y + 7 = 0 The y must be on one side by itself. The easiest way to do this is just move the y and then reorder. Add 4y to both sides. 2x + 7 = 4y Divide both sides by 4 (2/4)x +(7/4) = y Now reorder so that the y is on the left and reduce the fraction. y = (1/2)x + (7/4)
