Question

What is the equation of the given line in standard form? Use integer coefficients.



y = -6.9x + 5.1

Answer 1

A. 69x + 10y = 51
B. -69x + 10y = -51
C. 69x + 10y = -51
D. -69x + 10y = 51

Answer 2

1. multiply both sides by 10.
2. make the equation into Ax+By = C

Answer 3

did you figure it out?

Answer 4

nope im trying to do it now. Algebra 2 is not my strongest

Answer 5

I will help you.
just follow the steps that I said.
did you multiply it?

Answer 6

lol. do i multiply the -6.9x times 10 and the y times 10

Answer 7

im lost now

Answer 8

Sorry I changed the numbers awhile ago:
\[(10 \times (y)) =( -6.9x + 5.1)\times10\]
after you multiply it by 10, the equation will be:
\[10y = -69x + 51\]

Answer 9

ohokay thats how i was about to solve it thank you

Answer 10

REMEMBER:
When you transpose(or move a) term on the other side of the equation, the sign of that term will change.

What's your answer?

Answer 11

D

Answer 12

Nope...
you move -69x on the other side

Answer 13

so it will change its sign to positive

Answer 14

C

Answer 15

NOpe...don't guess

Answer 16

51 was not transposed

Answer 17

Why is that

Answer 18

because you want
Ax+By =C

The equation before is in the form y=mx + b or By = Ax +C
make it Ax+By =C

Ax = 69x
By = 10y
C= 51
