Linear Equations- General Form

Notes

General Form

Ax+By+C=0

A, B, and C are simplified whole numbers
A is positive.

Standard Form

Ax+By=C

A, B, and C are simplified whole numbers
A is positive.

Slope Intercept Form

y=mx+b

Point Slope Form

yy1=m(xx1)

m=slope
(x1.y1) is any point on the line

1) Express y=3x+5 in general form.


2) Express 2x+4y=10 in general form.


3) Express y=23x6 in general form.
