00:00:00.483 --> 00:00:02.624
<v ->Rewrite this equation in standard form:</v>

2
00:00:02.624 --> 00:00:03.624
"y = 3x - 2"

3
00:00:04.528 --> 00:00:05.921
Obviously, to do this problem,

4
00:00:05.921 --> 00:00:08.188
you have to remember that standard form

5
00:00:08.188 --> 00:00:09.604
is "ax + by = c".

6
00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:14.544
And so, I wanna move all
of my variables to one side

7
00:00:14.544 --> 00:00:16.401
and leave my constant at the other side.

8
00:00:16.401 --> 00:00:17.734
So "y = 3x - 2".

9
00:00:19.681 --> 00:00:22.624
Let me take "3x" away from both sides.

10
00:00:22.624 --> 00:00:24.624
I'll get "-3x + y = -2".

11
00:00:26.848 --> 00:00:30.760
I look and I see none of
my answer choices fit that.

12
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:32.448
So one more thing I can do,

13
00:00:32.448 --> 00:00:35.344
is I can multiply this all
through by negative one.

14
00:00:35.344 --> 00:00:37.648
What that's gonna do is get rid of this

15
00:00:37.648 --> 00:00:39.290
negative coefficient of "x".

16
00:00:39.290 --> 00:00:43.123
And so now I have "3x -
y" equals positive two

17
00:00:44.105 --> 00:00:47.513
which I can see matches
with answer choice "B".
