It depends what you know as standard form?
As far as equations of straight lines are concerned, standard form is
#y = mx + c# otherwise known as the gradient/intercept form.

The equation given is therefore already in standard form.

General form for a straight line equation is #ax + by + c =0#

#y= 5/6x+5/12 " "xx12#

#12y =10x +5#

#10x -12y +5 =0#
