Linear Equations with 2 variables.?

Im a little confused on how exactly to do these. It’s been a while since did some and i really forgot. so if you can explain it with the steps in the process i would greatly appreciate it. Thank You.

Directions: Write each equation in standard form. Identify A,B, and C.

1.) 5y=2x+3

2.) 18y=24x-9

3.) (5x/2) = 3/4y=8

Standard form is Ax + By = C. You have to manipulate the equations to put them into this form.

1. 5y = 2x + 3 Subtract 2x from both sides.

-2x + 5y = 3 So, A = -2, B = 5, and C = 3

2. 18y = 24x – 9 Subtract 24 x from both sides.

-24x + 18y = -9 So, A = -24, B = 18, and C = -9

3. Did you copy this correctly? You have two equal signs and no operation sign.
