Question

How do you write `y - 2=1/7x` in standard form?

Answer 1

`y=1/7 x +2`

Explanation:

It's almost already in standard form: you obtain the standard form when you write your equality as `y=f(x)`, for a certain `f(x)`.

If we add `2` to both sides, we isolate the `y` term, since we get

`y-2+2 = 1/7x +2`

and simplifying

`y=1/7 x +2`
