find the standard form of an equation with the slope of 3/4 and y intercept of 5

Question

there isnt much else to say other than the problem has to be in standard form instead of slope intercept 

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

 

The problem gives m and b, so this equation is y = (3/4)x + 5.

 

The Standard Form of the equation of a line looks like:   Ax + By = C,

   so, multiply by 4 to get rid of the fraction:                         4y = 3x + 20

      put x an y on the same side:                                        -3x + 4y = 20

     By convention, the coefficient of x is usually positive:       3x - 4y = -20

Answer 2

y = mx + b

the stated 'given' facts supply the values of m and b.

with some degree of cleverness, you can manipulate this equation into Standard form, in which both the x and y terms will be on one side of the equation.

one of the techniques that you will employ might be to multiply all terms by 4, thus CLEARING FRACTIONS, so that you produce, in short order, Ax + By = C with A,B,Call being integers.

Answer 3

y = (3/4)x + 5       Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.

4y = 3x + 20

3x - 4y + 20 = 0
