divide by 3 to put in standard form.
slope is the coefficient of x.
y intercept is when x is zero.

We can simplify the equation by dividing it by 3 to have:
y = (2/3)x - 8/3.
From the general equation of a line:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope.
So, from the equation we can clearly see that the slope (m) = 2/3
To find the y-intercept, we need to set x = 0 from the equation. So we have a y-intercept = 8/3
y = (2/3)x - 8/3.
