Which answer shows this equation written in standard form? 4 – 3(x – y) = –8x + 2 A. –11x + 3y = –2 B. 5x – 3y = 2 C. 5x + 3y = –2 D. 5x + y = 2
@KamiBug plz help
standard linear form
Ax + By = C
where A,B, and C are constants, numbers
so 4-3(x-y) = -8x + 2
you need to put that into the Ax + By = C form.
multiply out the -3(x-y) first
umm....I did it and I think it is C. Am I right?
i dont know the answer , all i did so far was 4 - 3x + 3y = -8x + 2
Now add 8x to both sides
5x +3y +4 = 2
now take away 4 from both ends
5x + 3y = -2
Which part of it were you unsure about ?
sorry I just got bit confused thanks though
The standard for for a line: Standard Form: the standard form of a line is in the form Ax + By = C where A is a positive integer, and B, and C are integers.
