Question

Given the equation y-4=3/4(x + 8) in point-slope form, identifty the equation of the same line in standard form.

Answer 1

Answer:

The point-slope form is y = 3/4x + 10 and the standard form is -3x + 4y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this equation in point-slope form, simply solve for the y value.

y - 4 = 3/4(x + 8)

y - 4 = 3/4x + 6

y = 3/4x + 10

Now to get to the standard form, solve for the constant, then rationalize the denominator.

y = 3/4x + 10

-3/4x + y = 10

-3x + 4y = 40
