To write the inequality \(5x + y < -9\) in slope-intercept form, we need to solve for \(y\).
Starting with the original inequality:
\[
5x + y < -9
\]
Subtract \(5x\) from both sides:
\[
y < -5x - 9
\]
Now, the inequality is in slope-intercept form \(y < mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept.
So, the final answer is:
\[
y < -5x - 9
\]
Starting with the original inequality:
\[
5x + y < -9
\]
Subtract \(5x\) from both sides:
\[
y < -5x - 9
\]
Now, the inequality is in slope-intercept form \(y < mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept.
So, the final answer is:
\[
y < -5x - 9
