TO create standard form, we need to things: (1) no fractions, (2) x and y on the same side. Here is our equation:

step 1 - multiply by 3. We get

step 2 - -4x from both sides to get

this is standard form.

Start with the given equation.

Multiply every term by the LCD 3 to clear out the fractions.

Subtract from both sides.

Rearrange the terms.

Multiply every term by -1 to make the 'x' coefficient positive.

So the slope-intercept equation converts to the standard form equation

-------------------------
Multiply thru 3 to get:
3y = 4x + 2
---
Standard form:
4x - 3y = -2
