What is the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.

Front

In the equation Ax + By = C, what does A represent?

Back

A represents the coefficient of x in the standard form of a linear equation.

How can you convert the equation 2x + 3y = 6 into standard form?

Back

The equation 2x + 3y = 6 is already in standard form.

Front

What is the first step to convert the equation y = mx + b into standard form?

Back

To convert y = mx + b into standard form, rearrange the equation to get all terms on one side, resulting in -mx + y = b.

Front

What is the significance of the coefficients A, B, and C in the context of a linear equation?

Back

The coefficients A, B, and C determine the slope and position of the line represented by the equation.

Front

How do you identify the slope from the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope can be found using the formula -A/B from the standard form Ax + By = C.

Front

What is the relationship between standard form and graphing linear equations?

Back

Standard form allows for easy identification of intercepts, which can be used to graph the linear equation.

Front

Can the coefficients A, B, and C be fractions in standard form?

Back

No, in standard form, A, B, and C should be integers, and A should be non-negative.
