Question

y − 4 =3/4 (x + 8) , identify the equation of the same line in standard form.

Answer 1

well first of all, multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the fraction
4(y-4)=3(x+8)

multiply out the brackets on both sides

4y-16=3x+24

add 17 to both sides

4y=3x+40

divide by 4 on both sides to get y on its own
