Question

Which equation is in standard form?
x + 2y = 8
x = -2y + 8
2y = -x + 8

Answer 1

2y=-x+8
Standard form is when the y is by itself :)

Answer 2

x + 2y = 8 is in standard form because you have to have the x variable in front of the y variable, and the constant has to be alone on one side of the equal sign.
