y-8=(18)(x-6)
The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=C.
Multiply both sides by 8.
8(y-8)=8(18(x-6))
Apply the distributive property.
8y+8⋅-8=8(18(x-6))
Multiply 8 by -8.
8y-64=8(18(x-6))
8y-64=8(18(x-6))
Apply the distributive property.
8y-64=8(18x+18⋅-6)
Combine 18 and x.
8y-64=8(x8+18⋅-6)
Cancel the common factor of 2.
Factor 2 out of 8.
8y-64=8(x8+12(4)⋅-6)
Factor 2 out of -6.
8y-64=8(x8+12⋅4⋅(2⋅-3))
Cancel the common factor.
8y-64=8(x8+12⋅4⋅(2⋅-3))
Rewrite the expression.
8y-64=8(x8+14⋅-3)
8y-64=8(x8+14⋅-3)
Combine 14 and -3.
8y-64=8(x8+-34)
Move the negative in front of the fraction.
8y-64=8(x8-34)
Apply the distributive property.
8y-64=8×8+8(-34)
Cancel the common factor of 8.
Cancel the common factor.
8y-64=8×8+8(-34)
Rewrite the expression.
8y-64=x+8(-34)
8y-64=x+8(-34)
Cancel the common factor of 4.
Move the leading negative in -34 into the numerator.
8y-64=x+8(-34)
Factor 4 out of 8.
8y-64=x+4(2)-34
Cancel the common factor.
8y-64=x+4⋅2-34
Rewrite the expression.
8y-64=x+2⋅-3
8y-64=x+2⋅-3
Multiply 2 by -3.
8y-64=x-6
8y-64=x-6
Rewrite the equation with the sides flipped.
x-6=8y-64
Subtract 8y from both sides of the equation.
x-6-8y=-64
Move -6.
x-8y-6=-64
x-8y-6=-64
Add 6 to both sides of the equation.
x-8y=-64+6
Add -64 and 6.
x-8y=-58
x-8y=-58
Rewrite in Standard Form y-8=(1/8)(x-6)
