9 cannot be a -intercept. A -intercept is a point where your graph intersects the -axis and is therefore properly specified using an ordered pair of the form .

9 can be the -coordinate of the -intercept and I shall proceed on that assumption.

Use the slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

Where is the given slope and is the -coordinate of the -intercept.
