For the standard form of a slope-intercept equation, what do the A, B, and C variables stand for??

standard form -- Ax+By=C





like do u need to know how to graph it from standard form? or do u just need to know that A B and C are just numbers that you have to plug in?





I never graph from standard form, I always convert it to slope-intercept (y=mx-b).





Good luck w/ that

It's just an equation in which A, B, and C are integers and A is positive. They don't stand for a particular part of the graph. It is usually used in systems of equations, but not important for graphing.
Reply:A slope-intercept equation is typically of the form y = M*x + B, where M is the slope and B is the y-intercept.
