Question 637710: I need help on using point slope form to make an standard form equation. I have the equation of +y-%28-6%29=+1.3%28x-%28-15%29%29+ and cannot figure out how to make it into standard form.
Thanks, Sam

Standard Form:+Ax+%2B+By+=+C
+y-%28-6%29=+1.35%28x-%28-15%29%29+...first do all operations you need here
+y%2B6=+1.35%28x%2B15%29+
+y%2B6=+1.35x%2B20.25+...move 1.35x to the left and 6 to the right
+y-1.35x=+20.25-6+
+-1.35x%2By=+14.25+...........Standard Form

y - (- 6) = 1.3(x - (- 15))

y + 6 = 1.3(x + 15)

y + 6 = 1.3x + 19.5

1.3x - y = - 13.5 ----- Rearranging the terms

highlight_green%2813x+-+10y+=+-+135%29 ---- Multiplying by 10
