Question

Given the equation y − 3 = 1 half (x + 6) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form. please tell me if its
a. x − 2y = −12
b. y = 1/2x
c. y = 1/2x + 6
d. y = 1/2x + 9
please give an answer

Answer 1

y = mx+c Standard Form..)

Answer 2

Standard form is ax+by=c
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

You can convert the equation of this line into slope-intercept form to get answer C.

y - 3 = 1/2 (x + 6)
y = 1/2x + 3 + 3
y = 1/2x + 6

Answer 3

But thats not standard form

Answer 4

Only one of the answers is in standard form (A.), and if you convert A. into slope-intercept form, you get the same equation as C.

x - 2y = -12
-2y = -x - 12
-2
_______________
y = 1/2x + 6
