Question 228445
Write the equation in standard form with integer coefficients:


 x-y-9=0


Step 1.  An equation in standard form is given as Ax+By=Cx where A, B, and C are constant coefficients.


Step 2.  Let's put x-y-9=0 into standard form with the following steps


Add 9 to both sides of the equation


{{{x-y-9+9=0+9}}}


{{{x-y=9}}}


Step 3.  Comparing  {{{x-y=9}}} with {{{Ax+By=C}}} means that {{{A=1}}}, {{{B=-1}}} and {{{C=9}}}.


Step 4.  ANSWER:  The equation in standard form is {{{x-y=9}}}


I hope the above steps were helpful.
