Question

Slope intercept form: y= -10/7x - 8/7
what is the standard form?

Answer 1

Answer: 10x+7y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First we multiply everything by 7 to clear out the denominators.

We get to 7y = -10x - 8

Then add 10x to both sides to arrive at 10x+7y = -8

Standard form is Ax+By = C where A,B,C are integers

In this case we have: A = 10, B = 7, C = -8

Some math textbooks insist that A > 0.

Answer 2

10x+7y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is Ax + By + C = 0 or Ax + By = C.

The first step is everything is multipled by 7, witch gives you 7y=-10x-8.

To solve that, 10x to both sides must be added, to get 10x+7y-8
