<p>I am given two equations:</p>
<p>y = x - 1/2</p>
<p>x = -2+1y</p>
<p>I am told to write both of them in standard form and then graph it so they are inversely related.</p>
<p>Help??</p>
<p>Question from a SAT book i found in my attic.</p>
<p>what is the first equation in standard form?</p>
<p>y = x -1/2</p>
<p>Isnt standard form ax+by=c?</p>
<p>That is standard form.
And that isn't an SAT question...
Are you trying to get us to do your homework...</p>
<p>Im not even in school yet.</p>
<p>Thats slope intercept form bro.</p>
<p>^ what are you talking about. Why are you trying to answer a question you don't even know</p>
<p>y=mx+b = slope-intercept form
ax + by = c = standard form</p>
<p>Ok... so how was his answer in standard form? It was in slope intercept form</p>
<p>OK then. I was wrong.</p>
<p>But if you know what the standard form is and you can't convert that, then why are you even trying to pass the SAT?</p>
<p>x-y = .5
x-y = -2</p>
<p>Theres only one way to graph them... so idk what you mean</p>
<p>they are NOT perp. they are parallel...</p>
<p>wat kind of sat questions ask you about those stupid forms??</p>
<p>It's good to know for your convenience when doing problems.</p>
