Question

Input the equation of the given line in standard form.

The line with m = 2/3 and passing through (1, 1)

Answer 1

Do you know the point-slope formula?

Answer 2

yes. i got 3x-2?

Answer 3

its wrong. correct one is '2x-3y+1=0'

Answer 4

No its not chenna. In standard form it would be 2x-3y=-1.

Answer 5

syandard form is y=(2/3)x+1/3

Answer 6

remember y=mx+c

Answer 7

mlhuyck, what you would do is take:
\[y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\]
Then (1,1) would be your (x0,y0)
So you have:
\[y-1=\frac{2}{3}(x-1)\]
\[y-1=\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{2}{3}\]
\[y-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}x\]
\[-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}x-y\]
Clean it up by multiplying by 3.
\[-1=2x-3y\]

Answer 8

Standard form is \[Ax+By=C\]

Answer 9

Does that make more sense mlhuyck?

Answer 10

but the standard form for a straight line equation is y=mx+c
and its a fact

Answer 11

No it is not. That is slope intercept form.

Answer 12

Definitions:

Standard Form: the standard form of a line is in the form Ax + By = C where A is a positive integer, and B, and C are integers.

Answer 13

y=mx+c
there m is the gradient and c is the intercept

Answer 14

Hashir. That is slope intercept form. And its typically y=mx+b where b is the y intercept and m is the slope. I will bet you any amount of money.

Answer 15

i m sure of it i have solved more than 1000 question with thaat fact

Check all of these. The last one is slope intercept.

Answer 17

but books are more authentic than this sites

Answer 18

Do you want me to scan my algebra 1 textbook?

Answer 19

One of those websites is the personal website of an instructor at Lousiana University.
