Here we are going from the y-intercept form to general form. This one is special since it has a fraction. We look at the denominators of both the fractions, i just made 5 over 1, then we see the lowest common multiple which in this case is 4 since 4 times 1 is four. So we multiply everything by four and then divide it by the denominator.
Then once we have moved the question down and moved the y also, we can place it on the other side of the equal sign so that we have a remaining equals to zero, the y gets moved commonly inbetween x and the last b number. Now it is in general form.
