Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (8,-1) and (2,-5) in standard form, given that the point-
slope form is y + 1 = 2/3 (x-8).

2x - 3y = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers

Given

y + 1 = (x - 8)

Multiply all terms on both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction

3y + 3 = 2(x - 8)

3y + 3 = 2x - 16 ( subtract 3y from both sides )

3 = 2x - 3y - 16 ( add 16 to both sides )

19 = 2x - 3y, that is

2x - 3y = 19 ← in standard form

for the first question it would be the second answer for the second question it would be the third answer and for the third question it would be the first answer
