A student is attempting to convert a slope-intercept equation into standard form. Which of the following statements best applies to the sample math given below?Given y=1/4x+2, I first isolate the constant. After doing so, I get the equation -1/4x+y=2. To remove the fraction, I multiply by –4, giving the equation x-4y=2, which is the final answer.A.the work shown to isolate the constant is not correctB.the work shown to remove all fractions is not correctC.the final answer is not in standard formD.the work shown is correct
Question
Answer:
the answer is B. They did not multiply the constant 2 by 4 when multiplying through to remove the fraction. so the correct answer would be x-4y=-8
