Q. What is y=−41x+4 written in standard form?Choose 1 answer:(A) 4x−y=16(B) 4x+y=16(C) x+4y=16(D) −x+4y=16
Understand the goal: Understand the goal.We need to rewrite the equation y=−41x+4 in standard form. The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.
Multiply to eliminate the fraction: Multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to eliminate the fraction.4⋅y=4⋅(−(41)x+4)This gives us:4y=−x+16
Move term with x to the left: Move the term with x to the left side of the equation.To do this, we add x to both sides of the equation:x+4y=x−x+16This simplifies to:x+4y=16
Check coefficient of : Check if the coefficient of is non-negative.The coefficient of is , which is non-negative, so we do not need to multiply the entire equation by −1-1−1 to satisfy the standard form requirements.
