Question

11th grade math - graphing linear equations. help!!!


determine whether each equation is a linear equation. if so, write the equation in standard form.

y=2-3x

5x=y-4

Answer 1

standard form looks like
\[ax+by=c\]

Answer 2

for the first one, add \(3x\) to both sides and you get it in one step

Answer 3

yes, but i'm not sure how to get it like that. can you help me on a few of them?

Answer 4

\[y=2-3x\\
3x+y=2\] finito

Answer 5

i'm not sure if i subtract 2 or add 3x?

Answer 6

how'd you get it like that

Answer 7

you want all the variables on the left, so you would add \(3x\) to both sides

Answer 8

by "add" i just mean write it

Answer 9

ohh i see!

Answer 10

y= mx + b is d standard form for linear equations

Answer 11

is it still not in standard form? 3x+y=2

Answer 12

yes, i have 3x+y=2 now. do i leave it at that?

Answer 13

yes \[3x+y=2\] is STANDARD FORM

Answer 14

leave it be, don't mess with it

Answer 15

for linear equations?

Answer 16

@diamondboy yes,
\[ax+by=c\] standard form
\[y=mx+b\] slope intercept form

Answer 17

yep u are right I am so sorry

Answer 18

and the next one is 5x=y-4

Answer 19

i would add 4?

Answer 20

no

Answer 21

subtract y from both sides

Answer 22

you want the variables on the left
subtract \(y\)

Answer 23

5x-y=4

Answer 24

no

Answer 25

which is standard, yes?

Answer 26

the \(-4\) is what stays on the right

Answer 27

\[5x=y-4\\
5x-y=-4\] the minus sign does not go away

Answer 28

oh, i had that. i just typed it to you wrong

Answer 29

and would xy=6 already be in standard form
