slope-intercept ... y = -5x + 9

adding 5x ... 5x + y = 9

Most authors of textbooks label them as follows
y = 6x -9 <----- y-intercept slope form
3x + 5y = 2 <---- standard form
6x - 2y + 7 = 0 <------ general form

check which notation your text uses.
You must practise to form one format into any of the other two.

in your case, from the given, we can immediately say
y = -5x + 9

or

5x + y = 9

or 5x + y - 9 = 0
