Answer:

4x + 15y = 12

Explanation:

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C where A and B cannot be fractions and A is not negative. To write in standard form, move -5/2y to the other side of the equal sign. Then clear the denominators by multiplying the equation by 6.

2/3x=-5/2y+2

2/3x + 5/2y = 2

6(2/3x + 5/2y = 2)

4x + 15y = 12
