Question

y=5/8x-5 in standard form

Answer 1

To write the equation y = 5/8x - 5 in standard form, we need to eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 8. This results in:

8y = 5x - 40

By moving the 5x term to the left side and simplifying, we get the equation in standard form:

-5x + 8y = -40
