Answer:

1 yes no

Explanation:

1 this is in standard form as it is a linear form and the intercepts can be found

2 This is not in standard form as it is a linear equation and both the x and y intercepts cant be found so must be written in the form AX+BY=C

so

-x + 2y = -6

and leading coefficient cant be - so multiply by -1

so

x-2y=6

Answer:

  1. yes
  2. no, 2y-x = -16

Explanation:

standard form is:

Ax+By=C

for problem 2:

y= 1/2 x-8

y- 1/2 x - 8= 0

rearrange:

- 1/2x + y +8 = 0

2 (- 1/2x + y + 8) = 0

-x + 2y + 16= 0

-x + 2y = -16

leading coefficient can't be negative

so multiply everything by -1

x -2y = 16
