Given the equation y - 4 = three fourths(x + 8) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form.

-three fourthsx + y = 10
3x - 4y = -40
y = three fourthsx + 12
y = three fourthsx + 10

turingtest · Answer

standard form is$$y=mx+b$$where $m$ is again the slope, and $b$ is the y-intercept (not the same $b$ as the last problem; don't get confused)
Just simplify $y-4=\frac34(x+8)$ and solve it for $y$ to get your answer

turingtest · Answer

$$y-4=\frac34(x+8)$$distribute the $\frac34$ and what do we get?

myininaya · Answer

Some text say Ax+By=C is standard form.

yeah i want to eat lol

anonymous · Answer

you are leaving???

myininaya · Answer

Well First I would do what turing as said and distribute that 3/4

anonymous · Answer

ok

turingtest · Answer

don't worry, I leave you in extremely capable hands @math_help101

anonymous · Answer

oh ok well bye have fun eating enjoy:) @TuringTest

anonymous · Answer

ok may you help me with distributing it please @myininaya

myininaya · Answer

a(b+c)=ab+ac is distributive property

anonymous · Answer

ok so how would i distribute 3/4

myininaya · Answer

to both terms inside the ( )

myininaya · Answer

just like a(b+c)=ab+ac has explained
