SOLUTION: write the equation in standard form: (2-3x)/y = 5 This is what I came up with: y = 5(2-3x) y = 10 - 15x Any help would be great. Thank you!

Question 5827: write the equation in standard form:
(2-3x)/y = 5
This is what I came up with:
y = 5(2-3x)
y = 10 - 15x
Any help would be great. Thank you!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First, "y=10-15x" isn't in standard form.
%282-3x%29%2Fy+=+5


Mutliply the "5" by the "y". Therefore, we can eliminate the "y" in the denominator.


2-3x = 5y


Ax + By = C (this is standard form)


3x + 5y = 2
