Question

What is the slope and the y
-intercept of the equation 9+27/2 x=−3/2 y
. Write the y
-intercept as an ordered pair.(1 point)
The slope is
. The y
-intercept is (
).

Answer 1

Start with 9 + (27/2)x = −(3/2)y. Multiply both sides by −2/3 to solve for y:

y = −6 − 9x = −9x − 6.

So the slope is −9. The y‑intercept is (0, −6).
