?????

anonymous · Answer

I asked a question earlier, and you posted to it: "Welcome to open study, if you have any questions, ask me" so, I asked.

anonymous · Answer

@satellite73 can you help me please?

sammixboo · Answer

What did you ask??? If that was about an hour ago that was on my backup account...

anonymous · Answer

are you trying to write 
$$y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x+6)$$ in standard form?

anonymous · Answer

I was about an hour ago, yes. @satellite73 Yes.

anonymous · Answer

first step would be to get rid of that annoying $\frac{1}{2}$ by multiplying everything by $2$ and get 
$$y-6=x+6$$

anonymous · Answer

Okay.

anonymous · Answer

oops typo there 
$$2y-6=x+6$$ is more like it

anonymous · Answer

Haha, I knew what you meant.

anonymous · Answer

man i am full of typos
lets try that again 
starting with 
$$2y-6=x+6$$ SUBTRACT  $2y$ and get 
$$-6=x-2y+6$$ and then subtract $6$ to get 
$$-12=x-2y$$
