Question 1165353: Find coefficients A and B such that 𝐴𝑥 + 𝐵𝑦 − 12 = 0. Given 𝑦 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑝𝑡 = −6 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑒 = 1/2
It's basically find the standard form of a line. I'd really appreciate a response on this!!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
b is given and m is given.
Just imagine m is some rational number n/d.
y=mx%2Bb
y=%28n%2Fd%29x%2Bb
dy=nx%2Bdb
highlight%28-nx%2Bdy=db%29
OR
highlight%28nx-dy=-db%29

Your example when finished is highlight_green%28x-2y-12=0%29 and therefore system%28A=1%2CB=-2%29.
