1. Problem Description

The problem asks to rewrite the equation y=2x+1y = -2x + 1 in standard form. The standard form of a linear equation is Ax+By=CAx + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, A and B are not both zero, and the greatest common factor (GCF) of A, B, and C is
1.

2. Solution Steps

Starting with the given equation y=2x+1y = -2x + 1, we want to rearrange it into the form Ax+By=CAx + By = C.
To achieve this, we can add 2x2x to both sides of the equation:
y+2x=2x+1+2xy + 2x = -2x + 1 + 2x
2x+y=12x + y = 1
Here, we have A=2A = 2, B=1B = 1, and C=1C = 1.
Since AA, BB, and CC are integers, and the greatest common factor of 2, 1, and 1 is 1, this is the standard form of the given linear equation.

3. Final Answer

2x+y=12x + y = 1
