Hi,

Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

  where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.



 8x + 9y = 73   OR  

 m = -8/9  and b = 73/9

 I think the most useful form of straight-line equations is the "slope-intercept" form:



    ...This is called the slope-intercept form because "m" is the slope and "b" gives the y-intercept.











so, you will have:



the slope 



and  for ....so, the y-intercept point is (,)
