Why it works
All linear equations in two variables describe the same line no matter which algebraically equivalent form you use. Rearranging the terms changes the presentation, not the line itself.
Common mistakes
- Dropping a negative sign when moving terms across the equals sign.
- Assuming every line can be written in slope-intercept form, even vertical lines.
- Forgetting to simplify coefficients in standard form.
Worked examples
Standard form stays 2x - y = -3, and solving for y gives y = 2x + 3.
That is already a vertical line, so there is no slope-intercept form.
Practice
- y = -x + 5
- 3x + 2y = 12
- y - 4 = 2(x - 1)
