Question

What's the answer for this ? -5x+11=1/2y

Answer 1

what are you solving for ?

Answer 2

Write in standard form with interger coefficents?

Answer 3

Are you still there?

Answer 4

standard form : Ax + By = C

-5x + 11 = 1/2y ---- subtract 11
-5x = 1/2y - 11 --- subtract 1/2y
-5x - 1/2y = -11 -- standard form has no fractions, multiply by 2
-10x - y = -22 -- multiply by -1 to make x positive
10x + y = 22

Answer 5

Thank You! can i ask something else?

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

Write the standard form of an equation of the line passing through (-5,1) with slope 3/4?

Answer 8

y = mx + b
1 = 3/4(-5) + b
1 = -15/4 + b
1 + 15/4 = b
4/4 + 15/4 = b
19/4 = b

your equation is y = 3/4x + 19/4 but we need Ax + By = C so...
y = 3/4x + 19/4 -- subtract 3/4x
-3/4x + y = 19/4 -- no fractions, multiply by 4
-3x + 4y = 19 -- multiply by -1 to make x positive
3x - 4y = -19 -- standard form

Answer 9

So wsrite both of them down? or jus the first one?

Answer 10

if you need to show how you got the answer, you might need to write both

Answer 11

if you just need the answer, write 3x - 4y = -19

Answer 12

Ok.. Write the standard form of the equation?
a. a horizontal line thorugh (6,-5)
b. vertical line thorugh (-2,7)
