Can someone explain to me how to do this problem please?
What is the equation of the given linein standard form? Use interger coefficents.
y=-1.7x+8.5

Respuesta :

slope intercept form
y = mx + b

change it to standard form
ax +by = c

y = -1.7x + 8.5
1.7x + y = 8.5 

multiply 10 on both side

17x + 10y = 85

hope this help

Answer:

[tex]1.7x+y=8.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation of the given line in standard form

Standard form of the equation is Ax+By=C

[tex]y=-1.7x+8.5[/tex]

To get standard form we move x terms to the left hand side

Add 1.7x on both sides

[tex]y+1.7x=8.5[/tex]

The standard form of the equation is

[tex]1.7x+y=8.5[/tex]
