To convert the equation \( 3y = 6x - 18 \) into slope-intercept form \( y = mx + b \), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept, follow these steps:
1. Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate \( y \):
\[
y = \frac{6x - 18}{3}
\]
2. Simplify the right side:
\[
y = 2x - 6
\]
Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form.
The final answer is:
\[
y = 2x - 6
\]
