What is the standard form of the equation y=-5/2x-3 ? a. 2x-5y=6 b. 2x+5y=-6 c. 5x+y=-6 d. 5x+2y=-6

The standard form of an equation is the form where that equation has no fractions and is written in the form ax + by = c.

To get rid of the fractions in y = -5/2 x - 3, we need to multiply both sides by 2. That makes the equation become:

2y = -5x - 6

Now we need to get it into the form ax + by = c. We can do this by adding 5x to each side.

5x + 2y = -6 is our answer
