The Standard Form for a linear equation in two variables, x and y, is usually given as Ax + By = C where, if at all possible, A, B, and C are integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1. read more
Linear equations can take several forms, such as the point-slope formula, the slope-intercept formula, and the standard form of a linear equation. These forms allow mathematicians to describe the exact same line in different ways. read more
