Putting an Equation in Standard Form with A Negative
In this lesson, you will learn how to put a linear equation in standard form when A is negative. The standard form equation has the coefficient of the x variable as a positive integer, and all coefficients must have the greatest common factor of 1. The steps involve rearranging the equation to get the y variable on one side and then dividing by the negative value of A to make it positive.

I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.
