Q. What is y−8=3(x+1) written in standard form?Choose 1 answer:(A) −3x+y=11(B) y−8=3x+3(C) y=3x+11(D) −3x+y−11=0
Distribute the 3: First, distribute the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses.y−8=3(x+1)y−8=3x+3
Add 8 to both sides: Next, add 8 to both sides of the equation to move the constant term to the right side.y−8+8=3x+3+8y=3x+11
Rearrange terms to standard form: Now, we need to rearrange the terms to get the equation in standard form, which is Ax+By=C. We want the x term first, followed by the y term, and then the constant.−3x+y=11
Check answer choices: Finally, we check the answer choices to see which one matches our equation in standard form.(A)−3x+y=11 is the correct standard form of the given equation.
