Question

Rewrite y+3=−(x−5) in standard form .

Answer 1

x + y = 2

Explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

Given

y + 3 = - (x - 5) ← distribute

y + 3 = - x + 5 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - x + 2 ( add x to both sides )

x + y = 2 ← in standard form
