Explanation:
The standard form of the equation of a line is:
[tex]ax+by=c[/tex]where a must be a positive number.
To rewrite the given equation in standard form we have to put x and y on the same side of the equation and leave the independant numbers on the other side:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-3=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}\cdot4 \\ y-3=\frac{1}{2}x+2 \\ y-3-2=\frac{1}{2}x+2-2 \\ y-5=\frac{1}{2}x \\ -5=\frac{1}{2}x-y \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
The equation in standard form is 1/2 x - y = -5
