How do you write #y=-7x+2# in standard form?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

The standard form of a linear equation is: #color(red)(A)x + color(blue)(B)y = color(green)(C)#

Where, if at all possible, #color(red)(A)#, #color(blue)(B)#, and #color(green)(C)#are integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1

To write this equation in Standard Linear Form add #color(red)(7x)# to each side of the equation:

#color(red)(7x) + y = color(red)(7x) - 7x + 2#

#7x + y = 0 + 2#

#color(red)(7)x + color(blue)(1)y = color(green)(2)#

To write the equation ( y = -7x + 2 ) in standard form, move all terms to one side to set it equal to zero. Therefore, the equation in standard form is ( 7x + y - 2 = 0 ).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
