Answer:

9x - 4y = 12

Explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

given


(3)/(4) x -
(1)/(3) y = 1

multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 4 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

12 ×
(3)/(4) x - 12 ×
(1)/(3) y = 12 × 1 ( simplify both sides )

9x - 4y = 12 ← in standard form
