Question

Write the equation y = 2 - 4x in standard form.

A.y - 2 = 4(x - 0)
B.4x - y = -2
C.4x + y = 2
D.4x + 2y = 0

Answer 1

Well, do you know what Standard Form is?

Answer 2

Nope.

Answer 3

Standard Form is:

\[Ax + By = C\]

Answer 4

Now, to get the 4x in the front, you just have to add 4x to both sides.

Answer 5

Do you know how to solve it from there?

Answer 6

ok. I still don't quit get how to solve it... :/

Answer 7

You have y = 2 - 4x
Now, you add 4x to both sides:
y = 2 - 4x
+4x + 4x

Now what does the final equation look like?

Answer 8

Right right. so it would be 4x+y=2 @wmckinely

Answer 9

Yup:) Good job! :D
