To convert the equation \(3y - 2x = 9\) to slope-intercept form (which is \(y = mx + b\)), we need to solve for \(y\).
Starting with the given equation:
\[ 3y - 2x = 9 \]
1. Add \(2x\) to both sides:
\[ 3y = 2x + 9 \]
2. Now, divide every term by \(3\) to solve for \(y\):
\[ y = \frac{2}{3}x + 3 \]
Now we have the slope-intercept form:
**Slope-Intercept Form:**
\[
y = \frac{2}{3}x + 3
\]
From this equation, we can determine the following:
1. **Slope (m)**: \( \frac{2}{3} \)
2. **y-intercept (b)**: \( 3 \)
**y-intercept:**
The y-intercept is \( (0, 3) \).
**First Point (let \(x=0\)):**
To find the first point, we can simply substitute \(x = 0\) into the equation:
\[
y = \frac{2}{3}(0) + 3 = 3
\]
So, the first point is:
**First Point:** \( (0, 3) \)
**Second Point:**
To find a second point, we can choose another value for \(x\). Let's choose \(x = 3\):
\[
y = \frac{2}{3}(3) + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5
\]
So, the second point is:
**Second Point:** \( (3, 5) \)
**Summary:**
- **Slope-Intercept Form:** \( y = \frac{2}{3}x + 3 \)
- **y-intercept:** \( 3 \)
- **First Point:** \( (0, 3) \)
- **Second Point:** \( (3, 5) \)
