Answer
$2x-3y=24$
Work Step by Step
The general form of a line is defined as $Ax+By=C$. First, multiply both sides of the equation by the least common denominator of all the terms. Then bring the $x$-term over to the left side of the equation.
$y=\frac{2}{3}x-8$
$3(y)=3(\frac{2}{3}x-8)$
$3y=2x-24$
$-2x+3y=-24$
$2x-3y=24$
