Write the equation in standard form. Y=-1/5x+2

5 x - y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a linear equation in standard form, move each variable term to the left side of the equation and simplify. This is the formula that you want:

A x + By = C

Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation. Switch the equation around.

5 x + 2 = y

Move y to the left side of the equation because it contains a variable. Subtract y from both sides or use what's called Subtraction property of equality.

5 x + 2 - y = 0

Move 2 to the right side of the equation because it does not contain a variable. Subtract 2 from both sides or use what's called Subtraction property of equality.

5 x - y = - 2

As you can see this version of the equation looks a lot like the formula you want meaning this is correct.

Ax + By = C Replace values = ==> 5x - y = - 2
