Which is an equation of the given line in standard form? A. –6x + 5y = 13 B. –6x + 7y = 11 C. –6x +7y =–11 D. –7x + 6y =–11
You could help yourself by looking up "equation of a line in standard form" on the 'Net. Here's one (of many) result from my own search. http://www.virtualnerd.com/tutorials/?id=Alg1_10_01_0063
Okay thank you :) ill check it out
A, B, C and D are already in standard form. You need to choose the one that represents the given graph. How would you do that?
Note that you can read off the x- and y-intercepts of the given line by inspection. Perhaps you could also find the slope of that line by inspection. With this info you can write the equation of the line and later transform it into standard form.
While searching the net, take a look at the calculator that coughs up the equation of a line from two points on the line. http://www.mathwarehouse.com/calculators/equation-line-from-2-points.php
Post what you get, okay?
Still recommend learning how to find the equation of this given line manuallyl. The illustration clearly shows 2 points on the line; use the slope formula to find the slope. Use the point-slope formula to find a first equation of the line. then convert that equation to Standard Form.
