Question

What is y= -2/3x + 5 written in standard form?

Answer 1

1) the standar form of the  equation is  ax+by  = c, therefore, for  y = -2/3x+5, multiply by 3 the previous equation, and its result is  3y = -2x+15⇒ 3y +2x = 15

the final result is  2x+3y = 15

 

Answer 2

2x + 3y = 15. (";  Multiply each term by 3 and simplify.
