3x+y-5=03x+y5=0

Explanation:

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

color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(ax+by+c=0)color(white)(2/2)|)))

"Rearrange "y=5-3x" into this form"

add 3x to both sides.

y+3x=5cancel(-3x)cancel(+3x)

rArry+3x=5

subtract 5 from both sides.

y+3x-5=5-5

rArry+3x-5=0

and expressing in standard form.

3x+y-5=0larrcolor(red)" in standard form"
