How to do this? Its Slope-Intercept Form. Forgot how to do: 
What is the equivalent standard form equation for this line?

3y = 6x + 9

amistre64 · Answer

turn it into:  Ax +By = C

anonymous · Answer

How do you do that again? havent don it in awhile and totally forgot how

amistre64 · Answer

you forgot how to subtract 3y from both sides?

anonymous · Answer

Ohh, no i can do that. I wasnt sure how to change it into ax + by = c
well then it would be = 3x + 9 - 3y... right?

anonymous · Answer

Am i on the right track?..

anonymous · Answer

Google is saying slope intercept form is y=mx + b? So it would be.. y = 2x + 9?

anonymous · Answer

Ax + By = C is standard form

anonymous · Answer

Yes, i know thats the slope interecpt form. I would think that wuld be the anwser but isnt one of the choices :/

anonymous · Answer

2x - 3y = 9, is that a choice?

anonymous · Answer

No :/ hate geo

hero · Answer

3y = 6x + 9

Divide both sides by three:
  y = 2x + 3

Subtract y from both sides/Subtract 3 from both sides:
2x - y = -3

@Hero thanks!

amistre64 · Answer

internet went down as i was typing this:

3y = 6x + 9

if we subtract 3y from both sides we get

6x - 3y + 9 = 0

this is considered standard form in some textbooks, other would have the constant on the other side of the equal sign,  so to go further if need be, lets subtract 9 from both sides

6x - 3y = -9

this is also considered standard form, depending on the author of the material you use

the divide by 3 is a nice touch tho

Oh, thanks! thought u jus left.

hero · Answer

I always understood it to be the standard form of the equation of a line converted from the slope-intercept form. Furthermore, I was taught to reduce to simplest form first (if possible) before doing anything else. So that's why I  divided both sides by three initially. Either way is correct, but I get the feeling mine is more correct because of the slope-intercept form.

hero · Answer

2x - y = -3 is also standard form wouldn't you agree @amistre64?

amistre64 · Answer

yes, i would agree.

amistre64 · Answer

that would most likely be the simplest form using integer coefficients

thanks both of you guys :)
