Question 398860: write y=3/5x+2 in standard form
Answer by rapaljer(4671)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=3/5 x + 2
First clear the fraction, by multiplying both sides by 5:
5y = 3x + 10
Next, subtract 3x from each side to get the variables all on the left side:
5y-3x=10
The tradition in standard form is to have the x coefficient positive, so multiply both sides by -1:
3x-5y = -10
