2 + 4(x - 3) + 2 = 4 + 5y in standard form? Medal and Fan :D
\[y=\frac{ 4 }{ 5 }x-\frac{ 3 }{ 5 }\]
How did you get that??
I thought standard form was Ax+By=c
Oh so move the x's to one side then the y's then the answer?
I can walk you through how to get it if you'd like?
yeah, sorry i got it wrong
Please do @haleyelizabeth2017
Okay, so what we want to do first is distribute the 4 to the parenthesis (x-3). Which gives us...?
2 + 4*x + 12 + 2 = 4 + 5y ?
It would actually be -12 :) So 2+4x-12+2=4+5y
Then, we want to combine like terms. So 2+2-12 is what?
8
-8 actually
So... -8+4x=4+5y, then we add 8 to both sides to get 4x=12+5y Then we want to subtract 5y from both sides to get it in standard form. This gives us 4x-5y=12 as our final answer :)
