Question

Write the equation in standard form. 0.5x = y - 4

Answer 1

Answer:

y=0.5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5x= y-4

add 4 on both sides

and then you get:

y=0.5x+4

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 0.5x + 4, or y = 1/2x + 4 (if you prefer fractions)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b (slope intercept form / standard form) ; m = 0.5 or 1/2, b = 4.

m = linear coefficient/slope(denoted by a in a 1 degree binomial)

b = constant coefficient / y-intercept (denoted by b in a 1 degree binomial)

to convert this equation into a standard form equation. You need to isolate y and leave the coefficients on the other side.

0.5x = y - 4

0.5x (+4) = y - 4 (+4)

0.5x + 4 = y

y = 0.5x + 4
