Question

I don't understand how to put anything into standard form. If anyone could help please that'd be great.

Answer 1

I think you would distribute what is in the parentheses and then make it so only a and b are on the left and i and the other characters that can be simplified are on the left but feel free to Google it.

Answer 2

Well, the formula for standard form is:

ax+by=c.

x and y are coordinates of an ordered pair.

I hope that helps.
