you cannot show too much "work"
basically, you remove what is common to all of the factors, and then put brackets, as it will be multiplied back in, remember that when you multiply exponents with the same base, its same as adding them, so subtract to remove...
you can seperate two of the variables , then factor, then subtract the last one from those two, because it cannot be factored out , as in part2 #2
4/(6+89-34-89+190)
=4/162
=2/81
That's your answer.

Answer:
- 6x +y = -6
- 6x -y = 8
- 5x +y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
To rewrite these equations from point-slope form to standard form, you can do the following:
- eliminate parentheses
- subtract the x-term
- subtract the constant on the left
- if the coefficient of x is negative, multiply by -1
Of course, any operation you do must be done <em>to both sides of the equation</em>.
__
1. y -6 = -6(x +2)
y -6 = -6x -12 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x +y -6 = -12 . . . . . add 6x
6x +y = -6 . . . . . . . . add 6
__
2. y +2 = 6(x -1)
y +2 = 6x -6
-6x +y +2 = -6
-6x +y = -8
6x -y = 8 . . . . . . . . multiply by -1
__
3. y -3 = -5(x -2)
y -3 = -5x +10
5x +y -3 = 10
5x +y = 13

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "standard form" of a linear equation is ax+by=c for integers a, b, c. The leading coefficient (generally, 'a') should be positive, and all coefficients should be mutually prime (have no common factors). That is why we multiply by -1 in problem 2.
