Rewrite the equation below into standard form.

2y=3x+12

A. -3x+2y=12
B. 3x-2y=12
C. 3x-2y=-12
D. x-y=-2

Answer 1

Standard form is:

Ax + By = C

where A, B, and C are integers and A is positive.

Answer 2

So, take the original equation and subtract 2y from each side:

2y - 2y = 3x + 12 - 2y -> 0 = 3x - 2y + 12

Now, subtract 12 from both sides:

0 - 12 = 3x - 2y + 12 - 12 -> -12 = 3x - 2y

Now switch sides:

3x - 2y = -12
