Hi,
*Note: slope-intercept form of an equation of a line is y = mx + 6 where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (value of y where the line crosses the y axis
.
Solve for y
y = -9x + 5
.
Slope = -(9/1)= -9 (negative slope tells us the line slants to the left)
y-intercept = 5
.
(0, 5) is a point of the line.
.
using m = -9, that would tell us that (1, -4)is also a point on the line(as y decreases by 9, x increases by 1
