Question

Convert the following equation to standard form: y=2x-3y=2x−3

Convert the equation in standard form to slope-intercept form: 8x-4y=12

Answer 1

8x-4y=12; subtract 8x from both sides

-8x+8x-4y=12-8x; the 8x on the left side "zeroes out"

-4y=-8x+12; move the inverse of -4 to both sides leaving y alone on the left.

(-1/4)-4y=(-8x/-4)+(12/-4)--> same as (-1/4)(-4Y)= (-8X+12)/-4: simplify

y=2x-3

Explanation:

Answer 2

Standard y=1

Slope Intercept y=2x-3

Explanation:

-3y = -3

divide both sides by -3

y=1

8x-4y=12

move variable to the right -4y=12-8x

divide both sides by 4 y = -3+2x
