To write this in standard form, you need to eliminate the
fraction in the coefficient of variable x. You can do this by multiplying 8 to
the two sides of the equation:
8(y) = 8[(-5/8)x + 3]
8y = -5x + 24
Transpose the variable x to the other side:
5x + 8y = 24
<span><span><span><span><span><span>(<span>x+2</span>)</span><span>(<span>x<span>−2</span></span>)</span></span><span>(<span>x+1</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>x<span>−1</span></span>)</span></span></span><span>=0</span></span> true. x=−2,2,−1,1
hope this helps
