Answer:

4/7x - y = -17/7

Explanation:

Standard Form: Ax + By = C

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Step 1: Define

m = 4/7

Random point (1, 3)

Step 2: Find slope-intercept form

y = 4/7x + b

3 = 4/7(1) + b

3 = 4/7 + b

b = 17/7

y = 4/7x + 17/7

Step 3: Find Standard Form

-4/7x + y = 17/7

-(4/7x - y) = 17/7

4/7x - y = -17/7
