Describe how to graph a line given an equation in standard form.

This is pretty simple. So a standard form equation is probably something like this: 2x+8y=10. 
We have to get that equation right there into a slope intercept, which is just isolating the variable y. 
 2x+8y=16    
-2x        -2x       Subtract the x value. 
------------------
 (8y=16-2x)/8  Divide the whole equation by 8 to isolate the y value.  
------------------
 y=2-1/4x
------------------
The fraction with the variable x is the slope. In this case, the slope is -1/4, so meaning it goes down one unit and goes right 4. 
------------------
The 2 is the y-intercept. (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call L the length and W the width.  The length is 10 feet longer than the width, so:

L = W + 10

The area is the length times width, so:

119 = LW

Substituting:

119 = (W + 10) W

119 = W² + 10W

0 = W² + 10W − 119

0 = (W + 17) (W − 7)

W = -17 or 7

Since W must be positive, W = 7.

L = W + 10

L = 17

The length and width are 17 feet and 7 feet, respectively.
