Question

Write each equation in standard form. Identify A, B and C.

$0.5x=-0.2y-0.4$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The value of $A=0.5,B=0.2,C=-0.4$.

Step 1 – Defining the standard form of linear equation

The standard form of linear equation is $Ax+By=C$.

Step 2 – Simplifying the given equation

We have:

$0.5x=-0.2y-0.4$

Add $0.2y$ on both sides:

$\begin{array}{l}0.5x+0.2y=-0.2y+0.2y-0.4\\ 0.5x+0.2y=-0.4\end{array}$

$\therefore A=0.5,B=0.2,C=-0.4$

Step 3 – Determining the final values

$A=0.5,B=0.2,C=-0.4$
