y=5x-46

Explanation:

Stand form of equation is y=mx + c

y+1=5(x-9) -----> simplify this equation
y+1=5x-45-----> subtract -1 in both sides
y=5x-45-1
y=5x-46

5x-y=46

Explanation:

"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"standard form" is.

color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(Ax+By=C)color(white)(2/2)|)))

"where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers"

"rearrange "y+1=5(x-9)" into this form"

rArry+1=5x-45

"subtract "y" and add 45 to both sides gives"

5x-y=46larrcolor(red)"in standard form"
