How do you write an equation in standard form with integer coefficients with slope of 1/2 going through (-2,3)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The standard form is -x + 2y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, start by using point-slope form with the given information.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 3 = 1/2(x + 2)

Now solve for the constant.

y - 3 = 1/2(x + 2)

y - 3 = 1/2x + 1

-1/2x + y - 3 = 1

-1/2x + y = 4

Now to get integers, multiply the whole thing by 2.

-x + 2y = 8
