6x -3y =-54 find the slope and y intercept of the line
:
Put equation in the "y = mx + b" form where: m = slope, b = y intercept
:
6x - 3y = - 54
-3y = -54 - 6x
:
Get rid of negative y, mult equation by -1 and you have:
+3y = +6x + 54
:
Divide both sides by 3:
y = (6/3)x + 54/3
y = 2x + 18
:
slope = + 2; y intercept = 18
