3y=4-2x

Move the left side to the right to get standard form
2x+3y=4 -> 3y=4-2x remember to change the value to the opposite
OpenStudy (tumblewolf):
I've been playing around and keep getting 6x+3y=10 but that doesn't seem right to me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
doesnt seem like it, But i'm not sure how you would get it through 1 -4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I just forgot how

I did
y-(-4)=-2/3(x-1)
y=-2/3x+2/1 - 4
y=-2/3x-10/3
then for the conversion went
y+2/3x=-10/3
2/3x+y = -10/3
6x+3y+-30/3
6x+3y=-10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
actually its very close
OpenStudy (tumblewolf):
Where did I go wrong?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Hold on let me double check
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah your right there
