Question

7 - 3(x - y) = 5x + 2.
What is it in standard form??

Answer 1

Yhu did it c:

Ok, the first thing yhu want to do is distribute the -3 into the parenthesis. Do that and lemme know what yhu get

Answer 2

standard form mean like this
Ax + By = c

Answer 3

Ok, so yhu equation is 7-3(x-y)=5x+2

Distributing the -3 in... Yhu get 7 - 3x + 3y = 5x + 2 correct?

Now can yhu combine the like terms?

Answer 4

I think I got it.
8x + 3y = 5?

Answer 5

c: exactly.

Answer 6

Thank you(:

Answer 7

Wait one second...

Answer 8

??

Answer 9

It would be 8x-3y=5

Answer 10

Do yhu understand why?

Answer 11

Nope. I really suck at math.

Answer 12

Lol, yhu did really good, when yhu combine the like terms, yhu get 5+3y=8x, correct?

Answer 13

Yeah

Answer 14

Wait, how did 8x end up in the back? When they move the stuff around it confuses me.

Answer 15

Lol, I'll slow it down

Answer 16

\[7-3(x-y)=5x+2\]
then yhu distribute.
\[7-3x+3y=5x+2\]
So yhu got it that far...

Answer 17

Combine yhur like terms.
Do yhu get it so far? Or did I lose yhu?
