Q. What is y+4=−6(x+6) written in standard form?Choose 1 answer:(A) y=−6x+2(B) 6x+y=−40(C) 6x+y=2(D) y=−6x−40
Distribute −6 across parentheses: First, we need to distribute the −6 across the parentheses on the right side of the equation.y+4=−6(x+6)y+4=−6x−36
Subtract 4 from both sides: Next, we need to subtract 4 from both sides to get the y term by itself on the left side.y+4−4=−6x−36−4y=−6x−40
Write equation in standard form: Now, we need to write the equation in standard form, which is Ax+By=C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.To do this, we add 6x to both sides of the equation.6x+y=−40
Check for non-negative coefficient and integer terms: We check to make sure that the coefficient of x is non-negative, which it is, and that all terms are integers, which they are. So the equation is now in standard form.
