Equation describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is .- X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. -15/9 = -1.66666666666667.
- Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is -15/3 = -5.
- Slope is -9/3 = -3.
- Equation in slope-intercept form: y=-3*x+-5.
