: This is the equation: 6x=y, and i'm trying to get it into standard form. Is it all right if i pretended there was a zero after the y, then the equation would read 6x=y+0?? I don't think it makes a difference but, anyways, as i was saying:
when i put in the zero i subtracted y from both sides and got the standard form of 6x-y=0. then i solved for the y and x intercept, and got (0,0) as x's, and (0,0) as y's. did i do this right?

You are absolutely right.
Go ahead.
The eqn 6x = y passes through the origin and so no intercepts at all.
Good Luck!!!
