Question

I NEED HELP FAST what is y+1=5/6(x-2) in standard form?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large\boxed{5x-6y=16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation of a line:

$Ax+By=C$

We have the equation in the point-slope form. Convert:

$y+1=\dfrac{5}{6}(x-2)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 6}\\\\6y+6=6\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{5}{6\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}(x-2)\\\\6y+6=5(x-2)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\6y+6=(5)(x)+(5)(-2)\\\\6y+6=5x-10\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\\\6y+6-6=5x-10-6\\\\6y=5x-16\qquad\text{subtract}\ 5x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-5x+6y=5x-5x-16\\\\-5x+6y=-16\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{5x-6y=16}$
