Question 684674: how do you put 4x+y=8 and 2y+8x=5 into standerd form?
Answer by ptaylor(2198) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Standard form: y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y intercept
Sooooo
4x+y=8 subtract 4x from each side
4x-4x+y=-4x+8 simplify
y=-4x+8 where m=-4 and (0,8) is y intercept
Next
2y+8x=5
subtract 8x from each side
2y+8x-8x=-8x+5 simplify
2y=-8x+5 divide each side by 2
y=-4x+5/2 where m=-4 and (0,5/2) is y intercept
Hope this helps----ptaylor
