x-6y=-60

Explanation:


The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C

In this kind of equation, x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers.

To convert the slope-intercept form of given equation, multiply both sides by 6 to remove fraction from the right hand side and then bring the variable x on left hand side.

y=1/6x+10

6y=x+60

Switch sides:

x+60=6y

x-6y+60-60=6y-6y-60

Simplify:

x-6y=-60

That's it!

-x+6y = 60

Explanation:

The equation of a straight line in Standard Form is:

Ax+By =C
Where A, B and C are integers.

In this example, we have the equation in Slope and Intercept form.

y = 1/6x +10
Where slope =1/6 and y-intercept =+10

We can rewrite this equation as:

6y = x + 60

Then reorder the terms as:

-x +6y =60

Which is our equation in Standard Form; A=-1, B=+6 and C=+60
