Question

Given the equation y − 4 = three fourths(x + 8) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form.

−three fourthsx + y = 10
3x − 4y = −40
y = three fourthsx + 12
y = three fourthsx + 10

Answer 1

the correct answer is 3x - 4y = -40

Answer 2

y - 4 = 3/4(x + 8)
y - 4 = 3/4x + 6
-3/4x + y = 6 + 4
-3/4x + y = 10...standard form does not contain fractions
3x - 4y = -40 <=== standard form
