Which one of these equations is correctly written in Standard Form? 1/3x + y = −4 3x + 2.5y = −4 x + 3y = −12 −3x + y = −12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's the third one since there are no fractions or decimals for the coefficients in front of x and y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would go with the 4th one cause y = 1 and you wont have to divide by 3 after subtracting x, as in equation 3

thanks you both

@Angelina<3 :Did u got it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i dont know who to pick

OpenStudy (yttrium):

Note that the standar form is ax+by+c = 0 it can also be ab+by = -c So, fourth is the correct choice. :))
