Problem: Four students tried to write 12x + 3y=9 in equivalent y= mx + b form. Question: Did each student get an equation that is equivalent to the original Ax + By=C form?
If so, explain the reasoning for each step. If not, tell what errors the students made.

If they got y = -4x + 3 it is equivalent to the original.

Step-by-step explanation:

Common errors include leaving the y with a coefficient, forgetting to simplify all the terms or getting the slope wrong by using the opposite sign.

(If there are specific results included with the question, you could include them in the comments.)

days of the week

step-by-step explanation:

javier earned more money then kyle, so that won't always be a constant term, but the days of the week do not change so that term is always constant.
