Answer:

3rd option

Explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

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

Given

y =
(2)/(5) x - 6 ( multiply through by 5 to clear the fraction )

5y = 2x - 30 ( subtract 5y from both sides )

0 = 2x - 5y - 30 ( add 30 to both sides )

30 = 2x - 5y , or

2x - 5y = 30 ← in standard form
