Write y = -2/3x -4 in standard form using integers.
2x + 3y = -12
2x + 3y = -4
-2x +3y = -12
2x + 3y = 12
I just need to know the steps for the most part, I don't get them.
its C
standard form is
Ax+By = C
You have
y = -2/3x -4
get rid of the fraction by multiplying everything by 3:
3y = -2x - 12
now just rearrange the terms to the desired form.
Thanks! I got my answer! :)
To write the equation y = -2/3x - 4 in standard form using integers, you need to eliminate the fraction (-2/3) by multiplying every term in the equation by a common denominator that will eliminate the fraction.
Here are the steps to convert the equation to standard form:
1. Multiply every term in the equation y = -2/3x - 4 by 3 to eliminate the fraction:
3 * y = 3 * (-2/3x) - 3 * 4
Simplifying the equation:
3y = -2x - 12
2. Rearrange the equation so that the x and y terms are on the same side:
2x + 3y = -12
Now, the equation y = -2/3x - 4 is converted to standard form: 2x + 3y = -12.
Note: Standard form requires that the coefficients of x and y be integers and that x comes before y. The constant term should be on the other side of the equation and should be an integer as well.
