Haley P. My two points are (0,1) and (4,0) but I am not sure how to write it in standard form. I know that the slope which is -1/3. I also know my equation in slope-intercept form, which is y= -1/3x +1. More 2 Answers By Expert Tutors
Kenneth S. answered • 08/21/17 Expert Help in Algebra/Trig/(Pre)calculus to Guarantee Success in 2018 given two points (4,0) and (0,1), the slope m is -1/4. The second point that I listed is, in fact, the y-intercept. If you want the slope intercept form, then y = -¼•x + 1. If you want standard form Ax + By =C then I suggest that you multiply the above equation by four and collect both the x and y terms on the left side of the equation, leaving a constant alone on the right side.
Arturo O. answered • 08/21/17 Experienced Physics Teacher for Physics Tutoring Note the slope is (0-1)/(4-0) = -1/4 The y-intercept is given at (0,1) The correct equation for the line is: y = (-1/4)x + 1 Convert to the form: Ax + By = C, with A, B, and C integers (if possible), and A positive: Still looking for help?

How do you put an equation into standard form?The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C. To change an equation written in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) to standard form, you must get the x and y on the same side of the equal sign and the constant on the other side.
