Answer:

-5x + y = 50

Explanation:

to formula for standard form is Ax + By = C

the formula (y=5x+50) is in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b

to write (y=5x+50) in standard form, move the 'mx' (which in this case is 5x) to the other side of the '=' or also known as the equation:

y = 5x + 50

y - 5x = 5x - 5x + 50

y - 5x = 50

(here, we subtracted 5x on both sides of the equation to 'move it')

Ax = -5x

By = 1y = y

C = 50

so, to write it in the standard form:

-5x + y = 50
