Answer:
[tex]2x-3y = 19[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In standard form, represented by the formula [tex]Ax+By=C[/tex], all the constants and coefficients of the terms are integers, the terms have no common factors (besides 1), and the number in place of A is positive. Knowing this, convert the equation to standard form like so:
[tex]y+1=\frac{2}{3} (x-8)\\y+1 = \frac{2}{3} x-\frac{16}{3} \\-\frac{2}{3} x+y+1 = -\frac{16}{3} \\-\frac{2}{3}x+y = -\frac{16}{3} -1\\-\frac{2}{3} x+y = -\frac{16}{3} -\frac{3}{3} \\-\frac{2}{3} x+y = -\frac{19}{3} \\2x-3y = 19[/tex]
