Answer:

3x+y=13

Explanation:

Standard form of equation is:

Ax+By=C where x and y are variables and A,B and C are constants.

Given equation is:

y-4=-3(x-3)

we have to make given equation in standard form.

simplifying given equation,we get

y-4=-3(x-3)

y-4=-3x+9

adding 4 to both sides of above equation,we get

y-4+4=-3x+9+4

y+0=-3x+13

y=-3x+13

adding 3x to both sides of above equation,we get

3x+y=3x-3x+13

3x+y=0+13

3x+y=13 is standard form of given equation where A=3,B=1 and C=13.
