Converting Standard to Slope-Intercept Form

What is the standard form of an equation?

• ax + by = c

• y = mx + b

• x = my + b

• a + bx = c

In the standard form of an equation, what are the characteristics of the coefficients a, b, and c?

• They are all fractions.

• They are all integers.

• They are all positive numbers.

• They are all negative numbers.

What is the first step to convert an equation from standard form to slope-intercept form?

• Add the X term to both sides.

• Multiply the X term by both sides.

• Subtract the X term from both sides.

• Divide the X term by both sides.
