Question

What is y + 11 = 1/3(x + 3) in standard form?

Answer 1

Standard form is y=Mx+b so first step is to isolate y:
Y=1/3(x+3)-11

Then use order of operations to simplify the x to a whole number. First multiply by three:
3y=x+3-33

Now combine like terms:
3y=x-30

Finally,
Divide to make y have a coefficient if one:

Y= 1/3x -10
