Question

HELPPP i need to find standard form and general form, please help

Answer 1

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 13/8x -17/8 and the equation in standard form is 13x -8y = 17

Equation of a line

A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b while as a standard notation is Ax+By = C

Given the coordinate points (-3, -7) and (5, 6)

Determine the slope

Slope = 6-(-7)/5-(-3)

Slope = 13/8

For the y-intercept

6 = 13/8(5) + b

6 = 65/8 + b

b = 6 - 65/8

b = -17/8

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 13/8x -17/8

Write in standard form

Recall y = 13/8x - 17/8

Multiply through by 8

8y = 13x - 17

-13x + 8y = -17

13x -8y = 17

Hence the equation in standard form is 13x -8y = 17
