It's pretty straightforward: rearrange y = mx + b to mx - y = -b. Boom, standard form! Just make sure A isn't negative.
First, get y on one side: y = mx + b becomes mx - y = -b. Then, multiply through if needed so there's no fractions and A is positive.
Transform y = mx + b by getting rid of y on the right side. Then tidy it up like a Marie Kondo episode!
Slope-Intercept schmeh! Just swap around y = mx + b to get mx - y = -b, and you've got yourself a standard form equation!
