Question 525630: what is the standard form of y-2=1/2(x+6)
i don't know if you multiply each side by 2 to get rid of the denominator first and then solve from there? if i did that then my answer would be y=x=8. is that right?

y-2=1/2(x+6)
Standard form you equation of the straight line
y=mx%2Bb
y-2=%281%2F2%29%28x%2B6%29
y-2=%28x%2B6%29%2F2
y=%28%28x%2B6%29%2F2%29%2B2%29
y=%28x%2B6%2B4%29%2F2%29
y=%28x%2B10%29%2F2%29
y=x%2F2%2B10%2F2%29
y=x%2F2%2B5%29
y=%281%2F2%29x%2B5%29Standard form of equation of straight line.
