To write the equation 18x−9y=7 in slope-intercept form, we need to solve for y.
First, let's isolate -9y by subtracting 18x from both sides of the equation:
-9y = -18x + 7
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -9 to solve for y:
y = (18/9)x - (7/9)
Simplifying, we get:
y = 2x - 7/9
The slope of the line is 2 and the y-intercept is -7/9.
So, the correct answer is:
y=2x−79 ; m=2, b=−79
