Write in Standard Form 3x-7+8y=9-3y

$3 x - 7 + 8 y = 9 - 3 y$

Step 1

The standard form of a linear equation is $A x + B y = C$ .

Step 2

Move all terms containing variables to the left side of the equation.

Add $3 y$ to both sides of the equation.

$3 x - 7 + 8 y + 3 y = 9$

Add $8 y$ and $3 y$ .

$3 x - 7 + 11 y = 9$

Move $- 7$ .

$3 x + 11 y - 7 = 9$

Step 3

Move all terms not containing a variable to the right side of the equation.

Add $7$ to both sides of the equation.

$3 x + 11 y = 9 + 7$

Add $9$ and $7$ .

$3 x + 11 y = 16$
