Question

Please help, i don’t understand this at all.

Write the standard form of the line that contains a slope of -3/2 and y-intercept of 6. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in the box provided or use the upload option to submit your solution.

Answer 1

So, standard form basically takes the shape of Ax+By=C. You want all of your variables to be on the left side and your constant on the right. There can also be no fractions!

In your case, since you didn't mention a y value for y, your line is y=-3/2x+6

first we get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2:
(2)y= (-3/2x+6)(2) and get
2y=-3x+12
now all there is left to do is get x to the other side by adding it to both sides:
3x+2y=12 is your final answer
