Rewrite the equation 2x + 4y + 2 = 3y + 5 in general form. 

       A. 2x + 7y + 7 = 0   B. 2x + y – 3 = 0   C. y = –2x + 3   D. 2x + y = 3

Respuesta :

General form of any equation is of the form AX+BY+C=0

Here A,B,C are three real numbers

THe given equation is

2x +4y+2=3y+5

To make right side equal to 0 we subtract 3y and 5 both sides

2x+4y+2-3y-5=0

Simplifying like terms

2x+y-3=0

Option B is the right answer

The answer is B) 2x + y - 3 = 0

In order to get this, start with the original equation and then subtract the parts from the right side.

2x + 4y + 2 = 3y + 5 ----> Subtract 3y from both sides

2x + y + 2 = 5 ----> subtract 5 from both sides

2x + y - 3 = 0
