Question

Which of the following is an equation of a line in standard form? y + (1/2) = -(3/4) (x -0) 3x + 4y = 2 y = -(3/4)x – (1/2)

Answer 1

Answer: y=-(3/4)x-1/2

Step-by-step explanation: To be in standard form the equation or the line must look like y=mx+b

m=the gradient or slope of the line and can take on both positive and negative values and can also be in fraction form

b= where the graph cuts the y axis it can also take on positive and negative values and can also be in fraction form

In this case m=-3/4 and b=-1/2
