Question

Which of the following equations is in standard form?
A - 5x + 5y = 35
B - 2x – 9y = 15
C - –y = 2x
D - y = –2x + 3

Answer 1

Standard Form: Ax + By = C

Answer 2

Which one looks like that?

Answer 3

So it would be A right?

Answer 4

Correct

Answer 5

Thanxx <3

Answer 6

2x – 9y = 15 works as well since it is in the form Ax + By = C

A = 2
B = -9
C = 15

Answer 7

refresh the page if weird box symbols show up

Answer 8

Thanxx Jim i put A and got it wrong. It ended up being B

Answer 9

my guess is that they wanted A,B,C to be coprime (or relatively prime)

Answer 10

Lol shadow played you

Answer 11

so that means

5x + 5y = 35

5(x + y) = 35

x+y = 7

is the simplified form which is in Ax+By = C form

Answer 12

Yes Shadow played me and I fell for it cx

Answer 13

Haha sorry

I was debating between A and B, and it seems they wanted coprime. But why would they? @jim_thompson5910

Answer 14

Ahahaa its okay cx

Answer 15

Both forms were correct, but behind the curtain they had some sort of preference

Answer 16

I guess so but whatev it doesn't matter

Answer 17

Riiiiiight @ShadowLegendX // check ur message thing @RosePetal_

Answer 18

my guess is that they just want everything simplified/reduced fully

Answer 19

and for A,B,C to remain integers

Answer 20

it might have been an honest mistake this time for @ShadowLegendX to say correct
at first I would think both A and B were correct

Answer 21

Oh, I see

5x + 5y = 35

is the same as

5(x + y) = 35

They just wanted it simplified. My teacher just says to show it in a form that represents it and he'll take that. So I guess it's just different learning styles

Answer 22

Ohh okayy i get it now. They both look right now that i look back at it
