Rewrite the equation 5x – 8y + 3 = 5x – 7y + 2 into general form (ax + by + c = 0). a. y – 1 = 0 b. x + 1 = 0 c. x – 1 = 0 d. y – 3 = 0

Answer

A. y – 1 = 0

Explanation

5x – 8y + 3 = 5x – 7y + 2

First put the like terms together.

5x - 5x -8y + 7y + 3 - 2 = 0

0x - y + 1 = 0

-y + 1 = 0

Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

-1(-y + 1) = -1 × 0

y - 1 = 0

answer: a

step-by-step explanation:

if xy ~ yz therefore xy would be the same length as yz

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11-1 > 1-1+a

-12 > a
