Standard form converter
Convert any line equation to standard form Ax + By = C where A, B, C are integers and A ≥ 0.
Slope (m)Y-intercept (b)
Standard form
Ax + By = C where A, B, C are integers and A ≥ 0.
From y = 2x − 3: move terms → −2x + y = −3 → multiply by −1 → 2x − y = 3.
Why standard form?
Easy to find intercepts: x-intercept = C/A, y-intercept = C/B. Also standard for systems of equations.
