Question

the form of a linear equation where the equation is expressed as $ax + by = c$ is called the ________.
the ________ of $x$ in the equation $4x + 2y = 8$ is 4.
to solve for $y$ in the standard form equation $ax + by = c$, you should first ________ $ax$ from both sides.

Explanation:

1. The linear equation format \(Ax + By = C\) is defined as standard form.
2. In \(4x + 2y = 8\), the number multiplied by \(x\) is its coefficient.
3. To isolate \(y\) in \(Ax + By = C\), first subtract \(Ax\) from both sides.

Answer:

standard form
coefficient
subtract
