Question

Write y+1=5/2(x-2)+2 in standard form step by step please

Answer 1

Answer: 5x - 2y = 8

y+1=5/2(x-2)+2

multiply the each side by 2 to get rid of the fraction

2 (y+1) = (5/2 (x-2) +2 )2

2y+2=5(x-2)+4

now distribute the 5

2y+2=5x-10+4

subtract the two from each side

2y=5x-10+4-2

add like terms

2y=5x-8

subtract 5x from each side

2y-5x=-8

multiple the whole equation by -1 to make the 5x a positive

-2y+5x=8

hope this helps!
