Question

write the equation y= -6/5x-4 in standard form

Answer 1

please explain

Answer 2

the standard form is \[\large\rm Ax+By=C\]
where ` a` should be the positive integer

Answer 3

but none are positive

Answer 4

alright then keep it negative

Answer 5

how do i solve this?

Answer 6

well wait ..what do you mean ? `but none are positive`

Answer 7

none of the numbers are positive

Answer 8

the standard form is Ax+By=C
so we need to move the x term to the left side

Answer 9

how would you cancel out -6/5x from right side ?

Answer 10

add -6/5x to both sides

Answer 11

hmmm it's a fraction for we need to get the common denominator are right side

Answer 12

im sry can i talk later got busy

Answer 13

\[\huge\rm y=\frac{-6}{5}x-4\]
multiply by the least common denominator of the fraction

Answer 14

\[\huge\rm y=\frac{-6}{\color{Red}{5}}x-4\]
multiply both sides by 5
\[\huge\rm 5*y=5*(\frac{-6}{\color{Red}{5}}x-4)\]
and then simiplify

Answer 15

don't forget to distribute parentheses by 5

Answer 16

5*y=-1.2x-20

Answer 17

5*y=-6x-20

Answer 18

yeah, just move the -6x over to get the standard form
