Question

PLEASE HELP!!! 15 PTS FOR THIS!! (Please show work also) Convert y=3x-14 (slope intercept form) to standard form

Answer 1

`3x-y=14`

Explanation:

To convert an equation into standard form, we want to get into the form
`ax + by = c`.

If we have
`y=3x-14`, our first step is to get the x term on the left side. We can do this by subtracting 3x from both sides.

`-3x + y = -14`

I find it easier now to just divide both sides by -1, so that we have a more consistent equation.

`3x - y = 14`

Hope this helped!
