Question

What is y+4=-6(x+6) witten in standard form?

Answer 1

6x + y = -40

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

• Distributive Property
• Equality Properties

Algebra I

Standard Form: Ax + By = C

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

• x₁ - x coordinate
• y₁ - y coordinate
• m - slope

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

[Point Slope] y + 4 = -6(x + 6)

Step 2: Rewrite

Find standard form

1. Distribute -6: y + 4 = -6x - 36
2. Add 6x on both sides: 6x + y + 4 = -36
3. Subtract 4 on both sides: 6x + y = -40
