Lines will not always be written initially in y=mx+b form. Sometimes you will need to do some simple manipulation (typically one or two steps) to rearrange into this form.
Exercise #3: For each of the following equations, rearrange them into y = mx +b form and identify the slope
and y-intercept of the line.
(a) y +2x = 7
(b) 2x+3y = 12
(c) 4x -6y = 7

Afarmer has a large field that is x feet in length. he wants to fence in a rectangular section in the middle of the field , leaving a length of 100 feet of open field behind each end of the fenced rectangle.he also wants the width of the fenced-in space to be 100 feet less than its length. find the expressions to represent the length and width of the fenced section of the field
