I know slope intercept form is y=mx+b and standard form is Ax+By=C but how do i convert them back and forth, do i sjut sswitch the figures around?
How do I convert slope intercept form to standard from?
slope intercept form is
y=mx+b
transposing you get y-mx-b=0
multiplying by (-1)
mx+y+b=0
if the slope intercept form is y=(a/b)x+k
by=ax+bk
transposing
by-ax-bk=0
multiplying by (-1( and writing bk as c
ax+by+c=0 which is the standard form
Reply:A simple switching of the figures should work, but I'd check your textbook first.
Reply:y=mx+b
=%26gt; mx-y+b=0
=%26gt; mx-y = -b
this is in the standard form A=m, B=-1, C=-b
Reply:If you have a formula
y = mx + c
and you want to get it into Ax + By + C = 0
Then you must do some rearranging.
subtract y from both sides
0 = mx - y + c
