Y-7=2y (x-1) write the equation in standard form

  In order for an equation to be in standard form, the equation has to be in Ax+By=c form, where A is equal to the coefficient of x and B is equal to the coefficient of y, whereas c is just the constant, or the number in the equation that isn't being multiplied to a variable. In this case, you should first distribute 2y into (x-1), and then you should perform inverse operations on terms on both sides of the equation such that one side of the equation will only have terms with x and y in them and the other side of the equation will only be a numerical value. When the equation is like this, then the equation is in standard form.
