Question

Can someone please explain to me how to do this problem? I'm not sure how to get from point-slope form to standard form.

Write the equation y - 2 = 4(x + 5) in standard form.

Answer 1

standard form: Ax + By = C

so
y-2=4x+20 subtract y and 20 both sides
4x-y=-22

Answer 2

e slope-intercept form of a line is: y = mx + b

Answer 3

Thank you both! I really appreciate it. :D Much love to you both. <3

Answer 4

"point-slope" form.

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

Answer 5

Thanks for clarifying zpupster
