Question

Graph the equation 9−x=3/2y
using slope-intercept form.(1 point)

A coordinate plane ranges from negative 9 to 9 in unit increments on the x-axis and from 11 to negative 11 in unit increments on the y-axis. A line with arrows at both the ends joins two plotted points and extends beyond. The coordinates of the plotted points are: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 2 comma 1 right parenthesis.

A coordinate plane shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 in increments of 1 and the y-axis ranging from 11 to negative 11 in increments of 1. A line with arrows at both ends joins two plotted points. The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 3 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 4 comma 2 right parenthesis.

An illustration shows a coordinate plane with four quadrants. The x and y axes range from negative 10 to 10 in one unit increments. A downward slanting line is graphed on the coordinate plane. The downward slanting line passes through closed points plotted at left parenthesis 0 comma 6 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 3 comma 4 right parenthesis.

Answer 1

Solve for y: 9 − x = (3/2)y ⇒ y = (2/3)(9 − x) = 6 − (2/3)x.
So y = −(2/3)x + 6 has y-intercept (0,6) and slope −2/3 (e.g. (3,4) is on the line).
The correct graph is the one with plotted points (0,6) and (3,4) — the last option.
