Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question is asking how the equation of the given graph relates to the standard form . Let's analyze the graph to form an equation in standard form.
From the image, we see that the line passes through the y-axis at and the slope appears to be horizontal (a flat line). This suggests that the line is a horizontal line, which means its equation will be of the form:
To express this in the standard form , we can rewrite as:
Here, and , so the equation is already in standard form:
Thus:
- The simplest form of the equation is .
- In standard form, and .
