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-5=4(x+2)" into this form"
rArry-5=4x+8
"subtract y from both sides"
cancel(y)cancel(-y)-5=4x-y+8
rArr-5=4x-y+8
"subtract 8 from both sides"
-5-8=4x-ycancel(+8)cancel(-8)
rArr4x-y=-13larrcolor(red)"in standard form"
