You can put this solution on YOUR website! "write the equation in standard form with integer coefficients"
You are not solving this, just putting the equation in the standard form which is:
Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers
:
1) 4x-y-7=0
Add 7 to both sides
4x - y = 7
:
2) -4x+5y+16=0
Subtract 16 from both sides
-4x + 5y = -16
:
3) x-5=0
add 5 to both sides
x = 5; y coefficient is 0
:
4) y=-5x+2
add 5x to both sides
5x + y = 2
:
5) y=9x+1/2
subtract 9x from both sides
-9x + y = 1/2
multiply by 2 to get rid of the fraction
-18x + 2y = 1
