Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form.

–9y − 11 = –4x

1 answer

To rewrite the equation \(-9y - 11 = -4x\) in slope-intercept form (which is \(y = mx + b\)), follow these steps:

  1. Isolate the y-term: \[ -9y = -4x + 11 \]

  2. Divide every term by -9 to solve for y: \[ y = \frac{4}{9}x - \frac{11}{9} \]

So, the equation in slope-intercept form is: \[ y = \frac{4}{9}x - \frac{11}{9} \]
