The standard form of an equation is the form where that equation has no fractions and is written in the form ax + by = c.
To get rid of the fractions in y = -5/2 x - 3, we need to multiply both sides by 2. That makes the equation become:
2y = -5x - 6
Now we need to get it into the form ax + by = c. We can do this by adding 5x to each side.
5x + 2y = -6 is our answer
The answer is −14k−14. Hope this helps.
Answer:
5 units
Step-by-step explanation;
We can use the formula for finding the length or magnitude of line joining two points.
Length = √((x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²)
The points joining the line are C (-1,4) and D (2,0)
Length = √((2+1)² + (0-4)²)
= √((3²) + (-4)²)
= √ (9+16)
= √25
= 5 units
