Answer 4

3

Answer 5

yess

Answer 6

i mean like this

Answer 7

Standard form is Ax + By = C. So, we want x and y on the same side of the equals sign with integers for A and B, and a positive A.

We could subtract off (2/3)x from both sides.
-(2/3)x + y = 15
Since we want the A and B to be integers, and the A to be positive, we will multiply by -3 to cancel out the one denominator.

2x - 3y = -45

Answer 8
