Answer:

(a) 3x +y = 2

Explanation:

You want the equation y = -3x +2 written in standard form.

Standard form

The standard form of a linear equation is ...

ax +by = c

where a, b, c are mutually prime integers with a ≥ 0. If a=0, then b > 0.

To put the given equation into that form, we can add 3x to both sides:

3x +y = 3x -3x +2

3x +y = 2
