56) How do you put an equation that is in standard form, Ax By C, into slope-intercept form? Each of the following equations is in slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and the y-intercept, then graph each line using this information. 57) y 2 5 x 6 58) y 7 4 x 2 59) y 5 3 x 4 60) y 1 2 x 5 61) y 3 4 x 1 62) y 2 3 x 3 63) y 4x 2 64) y 3x 1 65) y x 5 66) y x 67) y 3 2 x 1 2 68) y 3 4 x 5 2 69) y 2 70) y 4 Put each equation into slope-intercept form, if possible, and graph. 71) x 3y 6 72) 5x 2y 2 73) 12x 8y 32 74) y x 1 75) x 9 2 76) 5 x 2 77) 18 6y 15x 78) 20x 48 12y 79) y 0 80) y 6 1 81) Dave works in sales, and his income is a combination of salary and commission. He earns $34,000 per year plus 5% of his total sales. The equation I 0.05s 34,000 represents his total annual income, I, in dollars, when his sales total s dollars.
