Graphing linear equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

To ensure uniformity on an exam

Or

To test whether you can distinguish between the two formats

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is when a straight line equation is rearranged in the form:

ax + by = c

Therefore y=2x+4 in standard form is

2x - y =  - 4

The slope-intercept form is when a a straight line equation is written in the form:

y =  mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

The given equation is

y =  -  \frac{1}{2} x  - 5

This is already in slope-intercept form:

The standard form and slope-intercept forms are just formats.

Your instructor may restrict you to leave your answer in one of these formats maybe for uniformity on a test.

You may also decide to rewrite an equation in slope-intercept form, so that you can easily identify the slope and y-intercept easily for graphing purpose.
