Slope Intercept Form to Standard form?

I know how to get Slope Intercept Form (Y=mx+b) but I can't change to standard form I know the formula Ay+By=C

Slope Intercept Form to Standard form?
If you have it in the form (I assume you have an error up there) Ay + Bx = C,


then,


Ay = -Bx + C


y = -B/Ax + C/A





So m = -B/A


and b = C/A
Reply:all you have to do is get the x and y on the same side





ex.





y= 3x+4 slope intercept





subract the 3x to get the y and x on the same side





y-3x=4 standard form





choose as best answer if this helps please
Reply:The formula y-ysub1=m(x-xsub1) is the converter. y and x in this case are the same as the y and the x in the slope intercept form.
