Question

What is y=2x+5 in standard form?

Answer 1

2x - x = -5

Explanation:

• To write a linear equation in standard form, move each variable term to the left side of the equation and simplify.

A x + B y = C

• Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.

2 x + 5 = y

• Move y to the left side of the equation because it contains a variable.

2 x + 5 − y = 0

• Move 5 to the right side of the equation because it does not contain a variable.

2 x − y = − 5

Answer 2

My guess is 2x-y= -5
