slope intercept form: y=mx%2Bb where m is a slope and b is y-intercept
8x%2B19y=-9+...so, solve for y
19y=-8x-9+
19y%2F19=-8x%2F19-9%2F19+
y=-%288%2F19%29x-9%2F19+

slope intercept form: y = mx + b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept, the point where the line touches the y-axis.
8x+19y=-9
19y = -8x-9
y = (-8x-9)/19
y = -8x/19-9/19
