You will need to apply the Properties of Equality, solving until the equation is in standard form.

B

Practice makes perfect
Equations in standard form are written in a specific format. Ax+ By= CIn this form, A, B, and C are integers and A and B cannot both be zero. We will use the Properties of Equality to rewrite the given equation in this form.
y = 2/7x-4
7y = 7(2/7x-4)
7y = 2x - 28
7y + 28 = 2x
28 = 2x - 7y
2x - 7y = 28
Below we compare this result with the general standard form equation. Ax+ By&= C 2x - 7y&= 28
