find the slope and y-intercept of 6y=-8x-18

4 answers

6y = -8x - 18

Put the equation in slope-intercept form, by solving for y

6y = -8x - 18
Divide both sides bu 6
y = -8/6 x - 18/6
Reduce fractions
y = -4/3 x - 9/3

Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form.
y = mx + b,
where m = slope
and b = y-intercept

Slope m = ?
y-intercept b = ?
Slope m = -4/3
y-intercept b = -9/3
Delta math told me that this answer was wrong, thanks for the help, but if your going to post answers, at least make sure they are correct
