Rewrite the following equation in standard form.y=9x+8Hint: The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C where A and B are not both zero, and A, B, and C are integers whose GCF is 1.
Q. Rewrite the following equation in standard form.y=9x+8Hint: The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C where A and B are not both zero, and A, B, and C are integers whose GCF is 1.
Start Equation Operation: Start with the given equation.y=9x−8Which operation should be used to isolate the constant, −8?In y=9x−8, 9x is positive.The subtraction is used to isolate −8.
Move X Term: Rewrite the equation to move the term involving x to the other side of the equation.y=9x−8Subtract 9x from both sides to get the x term on the left side.y−9x=−8−9x
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation.y−9x=−8−9x is incorrect because subtracting 9x from the right side is unnecessary and introduces a math error. The correct step is to subtract 9x from both sides to get:−9x+y=−8
