Solved by pluggable solver: Converting Linear Equations in Standard form to Slope-Intercept Form (and vice versa)
Convert from standard form (Ax+By = C) to slope-intercept form (y = mx+b)


\"9x%2B3y=-3\" Start with the given equation


\"9x%2B3y-9x=-3-9x\" Subtract 9x from both sides


\"3y=-9x-3\" Simplify


\"%283y%29%2F%283%29=%28-9x-3%29%2F%283%29\" Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y


\"y+=+%28-9x%29%2F%283%29%2B%28-3%29%2F%283%29\" Break up the fraction on the right hand side


\"y+=+-3x-1\" Reduce and simplify


The original equation \"9x%2B3y=-3\" (standard form) is equivalent to \"y+=+-3x-1\" (slope-intercept form)


The equation \"y+=+-3x-1\" is in the form \"y=mx%2Bb\" where \"m=-3\" is the slope and \"b=-1\" is the y intercept.
