Write y = -2/5x + 3 in standard form using integers.
A)2x+5y=-15
B)2x-5y=15
C)2x+5y=3
D)2x-5y=3
I don't agree with any of these answer choices. I cam up with this answer; 2x+5y=15, but it is not one of the answer choices. Is my answer wrong? If so, what's the right answer? Please help me!
Ms. Sue or anyone else can you please help me with this??? I am really confused.
Someone please help??? I would really appreciate it.
y = -2/5x + 3
multiply each term by 5 , the LCD
5y = -2x + 15
get the x's and y's to one side, the constant to the other
2x + 5y = 15
None of your choices are correct.
e.g. for y = (-2/5)x + 3 , (the original)
the y-intercept is (0,3)
(0,3) does not satisfy any of the given choices, but it satisfies my equation
You either typed the question wrong, or the question itself is wrong.
To convert the equation y = -2/5x + 3 into standard form using integers, we need to eliminate any fractions and rearrange the equation.
First, let's multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction:
5y = -2x + 15
Next, let's rearrange the equation so that the terms with x and y are on the same side and the constant term is on the other side:
2x + 5y = 15
Now we have the equation in standard form. However, the given answer choices do not match this result. It seems there may be a mistake in the provided answer choices, or there could be another specific requirement or condition for the answer. To determine the correct choice, it is necessary to better understand the context or specific instructions related to the question or exercise.
