Given the equation:

4x + -18

Turn to standard form.

Solution:

In order to turn the equation to standard form we must designate the proper signs that were introduced to each other. We must take note that if similar signs are either introduced, multiplied or divided, the answer will be positive, hence if the signs are opposite, then the answer will be negative. In our case since -18 is introduced to a positive sign, then the answer will be negative.

f(x) = 4x + (-18)

f(x) = 4x -18

Final answer:

f(x) = 4x -18
