Question

How do you write `y+9=-3(x-2)` in standard form?

Answer 1

Standard form for a linear equation is:
`color(white)("XXXX")` `Ax+By=C` where `AepsilonZZ >=0`
`3x+y = -3`

Explanation:

`y+9 = -3(x-2)`
`rarr y+9 = -3x+6`
`rarr 3x+y+9 = +6`
`rarr 3x+y = -3` `color(white)("XXXX")`(standard form)
