Question 1068391: Hi, I was asked to put -6x + 3y = 9 into y = mx + b form, as well as find the slope and vertical/horizontal intercepts.
However, I'm unsure how to put it into the y = mx + b form due to the 3 in front of the y.

Thank you!

Isolate the term with y and then express y explicitly via x and the constant term.

Do you understand these words ?

If "YES" then complete it on your own.
