write y=5/2X-3 in standard form using integers
=====
Standard Form:: ax + by = c
-----
Your Problem::
Multiply thru by 2 to get:
2y = 5x - 6
----
Rearrange::
5x - 2y = -6

+y=%285%2F2%29x-3 ...both sides multiply by 2
+2y=2%285%2F2%29x-2%2A3
+2y=cross%282%29%285%2Fcross%282%29%29x-6
+2y=5x-6
-5x%2B+2y=5x-5x-6
-5x%2B+2y=-6 in standard form using integers
