Answer

$2x+3y=-3$

Work Step by Step

In order to write the equation in standard form, we must get y and x on the same side of the equation: $2/3x+y=-1$ x, however, is being multiplied by 2/3. Because we want this equation to be in standard form using integers, we multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to obtain: $2x+3y=-3$
