Question

Write this in standard form Y-intercept=(-2,5) slope : 4 over 3

Answer 1

Hey there!!

Things to remember while writing a standard form:

• The equation shall always start with 'x'
• The term 'x' shall not be negative or a fraction.

First, let's get this into slope-intercept form:

... y = mx + b

... 5 = (4/3)(-2) + b

... 5 = (-8/3) + b

... 5 + (8/3) = b

... b = 23/3

Slope-intercept=

... y = (4x/3) + (23/3)

Subtracting 4x/3 on both sides:

... (-4x/3) + y = 23/3

Multiplying by 3 on both sides:

... -4x + 3y = 23

Final equation :

4x - 3y = -23

Hope my answer helps!
