Question

what is y - 1 = -4/5(x-3) written in standard form using positive integers

Answer 1

and i don't know how.......

Answer 2

well you can start
with the fraction side
- ( 4/5 ) (x-3)

Answer 3

distribute

Answer 4

Ok i did....and i get 4/5x + y = 3.4

Answer 5

4/5 = 0.8

Answer 6

Do do I round that to 1? that is one of my answers.

Answer 7

emm
well
no

Answer 8

graphing you dont round things off

Answer 9

well, i'm not graphing this

Answer 10

i mean this is slope intercept form

meaning to give directions to graph

Answer 11

hm...well that's a problem

Answer 12

well its easier for you
you dont have to round things off
so you can leave it like that
providing it is correct

Answer 13

nope....0.8 is not one of the answers

Answer 14

what you have right there
is the

point slope form

what hat you can get out of it is

the slope intercept formula <----- the answer you want

Answer 15

you want a formula for your answer

Answer 16

a formula? i only have numbers for answers

4
5
3
1

Answer 17

it should be in the form

y = mx + b

y = y value
x = x value
m = slope
b = y intercept where the line intersects y

Answer 18

ok one sec lemme figure that out

Answer 19

and i get y = -4/5x + 12/5 (or 2.4)

Answer 20

or, do i plug in the numbers i have for an answer and see if it comes out correct?

Answer 21

However, I want it in standard form, which is Ax + Bx = C

Answer 22

gtg sorry sleep :/

Answer 23

oh...ok

Answer 24

oh ya about
just switch it around/ my mistake

Answer 25

algebraically

Answer 26

im off gn :)

Answer 27

The only 2 standard forms I know of are
y = mx + b
and
Ax + By = C

In either form you get
y = -4/5x + 17/5
or
4x + 5y = 17 (simplified to integer form).

I don't see where the answer can be an integer. Strange question.
