1 answer

To write the linear equation \(3y = 6x - 18\) in slope-intercept form (which is \(y = mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept), we can follow these steps:

  1. Divide every term in the equation by 3 to solve for \(y\):

\[ y = \frac{6x}{3} - \frac{18}{3} \]

  1. Simplifying the equation gives:

\[ y = 2x - 6 \]

Thus, the slope-intercept form of the equation is:

\[ y = 2x - 6 \]

So, the answer is:

\[ y = 2x - 6 \]
