Answer: The equation that shows y=-(1/2)x+4 is standard form is x+2y=8
Option A. x+2y=8
Solution:
y=-(1/2)x+4
Standard form of the equation Ax+By=C, with A, B, and C integer numbers
The coefficient of x is a fraction. To simplify the fraction, let's multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
2y=2 [ -(1/2)x+4]
2y=-2(1/2)x+2(4)
2y=-(2/1)(1/2)x+8
2y=-[(2*1)/(1*2)]x+8
2y=-(2/2)x+8
2y=-1x+8
2y=-x+8
The two variables must be on the left of the equation, then adding x both sides of the equation:
2y+x=-x+8+x
x+2y=8
