Question

Algebra 1 help:

Write the equation in standard form.

8-4(x-y)=2x+6

Answer 1

standard form looks like below :
\[\rm Ax + By = C\]

Answer 2

I think that it's 6x+4y=2

Answer 3

very close, but nope.

Answer 4

6x-4y=2 maybe?

Answer 5

thats right but i feel you're just guessing hmm

Answer 6

That was kinda guessing. I knew it was one of those 2 answers

Answer 7

rearranging it in standard form is pretty easy, you just need to know how to distribute and combine like terms

Answer 8

Ok thank you

Answer 9

\[\rm 8-4(x-y)=2x+6\]

The first thing you want to do is to distribute that -4 into the parenthesis, you get :

\[\rm 8-4x+4y=2x+6\]

Answer 10

Yeah I did that

Answer 11

You're ready to combine like terms now, just bring all variables to one side and constants to other side
