Question

How do you write `Y=2x+4` in standard form?

Answer 1

It already is (?)

Explanation:

Standard form for linear equations is the basic equation to help with graphing. It is as follows:

`y = mx +b`

Where `y` is being solved for,
`x` is the point that is being plugged in
`m` is the slope of the equation,
and `b` is the y-intercept, the point where the equation crosses the y-axis, and the value of `x` is 0

From the equation given, we can analyze it as so:

`y = 2x +4`

`y` is being solved for
`x` = the coordinate being plugged in
`m = 2`, a.k.a. the slope
`b = 4`, which is the y-intercept
