Transcribed Image Text:**Question 19:**
Write the following equation in standard form: \( y = \frac{1}{2}x + 1 \)
Options:
- A) \( 2x - y = -1 \)
- B) \( x - 2y = -2 \)
- C) \( 2x + 2y = -2 \)
- D) None of these
- E) \( x + 2y = -2 \)
- F) \( 2y = x + 2 \)
**Question 20:**
What is the nature of the following equation: \( 4 + y - 1 = 3y - 3 \)
Options:
- A) Slanted
- B) Horizontal
**Explanation:**
- **Standard Form of a Linear Equation:** The standard form of a linear equation is \( Ax + By = C \), where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.
- **Nature of Equation:** Determining if a line is horizontal, slanted, or vertical. A horizontal line has an equation of the form \( y = \text{constant} \), while other forms indicate slanted lines.
This exercise aims to test your understanding of converting equations to standard form and identifying the type of line represented by an equation.
