Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP Write the following equation in general form.

-x - 5y = -19

–x - 5y + 19 = 0
x + 5y - 19 = 0
x + 5y + 19 = 0

Answer 1

Answer: -x - 5y + 19 = 0, choice A

All we're doing is adding 19 to both sides to get everything on the same side.

General form is Ax+By+C = 0. Some books use Ax+By = C which is just a variation of the same idea.
