Question

Given the equation y − 3 = one half(x + 6) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form.

Answer 1

walk me through it plz

Answer 2

im confused

Answer 3

@phi

Answer 4

thanks but i got someone to help

Answer 5

i already wrote the equation

Answer 6

this is the same equation, but they want it in a different form

I think you should start with y = mx + b form (what you got in the last question)

Answer 7

so start with the answer from the last one

Answer 8

yes

we want the form

Ax + B y = C

you have the equation (in y = mx +b form)
\[ y = \frac{1}{2} x +6 \]

Answer 9

u lost me

Answer 10

you have
\[ y − 3 = \frac{1}{2}(x + 6) \]

you can change that to y = mx +b form. you get
\[ y = \frac{1}{2} x+ 6 \]
agreed ?

Answer 11

yes we did that last time

Answer 12

standard form means you have the x and y on the same side of the equation

if any number multiplies the x (we call it A so we can talk about it), it is positive

the standard form is

A x + B y = C

we have
y = 1/2 x + 6

we want the "x term" on the other side. add -1/2 x to both sides
can you do that ?
