Question

How do you write `6x+4y+12=0` in standard form?

Answer 1

`6x+4y = -12`

Explanation:

"standard form" for a linear equation is
`color(white)("XXXX")` `Ax+By=C`
`color(white)("XXXX")` `color(white)("XXXX")`With `A, B, C epsilon ZZ` and `A>=0`

`6x+4y+12` can be converted into "standard form" by subtracting `12` from both sides.
