Step-by-step explanation:
Ax + By = C form of the given equation is –6x + y = –28.
Solution:
Given equation is y – 2 = 6(x – 5).
To write the equation in Ax + By = C format:
y – 2 = 6(x – 5)
y – 2 = 6x – 30
Add 2 on both sides of the equation.
y – 2 + 2 = 6x – 30 + 2
y = 6x – 28
Subtract 6x from both sides of the equation.
y – 6x = 6x – 28 – 6x
y – 6x = –28
Arrange the terms in the equation.
–6x + y = –28
This is in the form of Ax + By = C.
Here A = –6, B = 1 and C = –28.
First, change the mixed fraction into improper fraction. Change the whole number into a fraction, and add.
1 8/11 = 11/11 + 8/11 = 19/11
To find the reciprocal, flip the fraction.
The reciprocal of 19/11 is 11/19
