The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C. In this kind of equation, x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers. When we shift the variable terms to the left side of the equation and everything else to the right side, we get . This equation is now in standard form.

the standard form of your equation is

5y+10x=−2

Answer:

10x+5y=-2

Explanation:

Given equation is

y=-2x-2/5

Ax+By=C where A,B and C are constants and x and y are variables.

we have to change given equation into standard equation.

y=-2x-2/5

Adding 2x to both sides of above equation,we get

2x+y=2x-2x-2/5

2x+y=0-2/5

2x+y=-2/5

multiplying by 5 to both sides of above equation ,we get

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

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

10x+5y=-2 is the standard form of equation where A=10,B=5 and C=-2
