Question

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given points. R(3,3) S(-6, -6)

I got stuck on what to do next, heres what I have so far...
-6 - 3 / -6 - 3 = -9/-9= 1 which is the slope
y-3=1(x-3)
y-3 = x -3
y=x +0

Answer 1

well, youve got y=x correctly; standard form is:

Ax + By = C ; such that A > 0

Answer 2

well, A >= 0

Answer 3

I asked my teacher and he said I have to move the x over so how do I do that?

Answer 4

might want to consider moving the y over instead .... how do we get rid of something on one side and also "get rid of it" on the other side?

Answer 5

consider what you did on this step:

y-3 = x -3 ; you got rid of the 3 on one side, how did you get rid
of it from the other side?

Answer 6

y = x
-y -y ; just subtract the same thing from both sides to keep things equal
--------
0 = x - y

Answer 7

Oh my gosh thank you so much!

Answer 8

it wasnt really a big deal :) youre welcome tho

Answer 9

Well I was just stressing because I couldn't figure out what to do next!

Answer 10
