Question

How do you write `y=9x+1/2` in standard form?

Answer 1

`18x-2y=-1`

Explanation:

`"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"standard form"` is.

`color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(Ax+By=C)color(white)(2/2)|)))`

`"where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers"`

`"given "y=9x+1/2`

`"multiply all terms by 2"`

`2y=18x+1`

`"subtract "2y" from both sides"`

`0=18x-2y+1`

`"subtract 1 from both sides"`

`18x-2y=-1larrcolor(red)"in standard form"`
