You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The typical expectation that y=f(x), or whatever name you want for the function,

Ax%2BB%2Af%28x%29=C

B%28f%28x%29%29=-Ax%2BC
highlight%28f%28x%29=-%28A%2FB%29x%2BC%2FB%29


If kept to the use of y, then y=-%28A%2FB%29x%2BC%2FB might be said to be in general form.
