Question 1102783: Find the slope and y intercept of the line, and graph:
2x+3y=18
I got the slope as: -2/3
and the y intercept as: (0,6) is this correct? Also how do I graph that? Thank you!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the slope and y intercept of the line, and graph:
2x+3y=18
I got the slope as: -2/3
and the y intercept as: (0,6) is this correct? Also how do I graph that?
-------------
Solve for y, --> slope-intercept form y = mx + b
y = (-2/3)x + 6
m = -2/3 (slope)
b = 6 (y-intercept)
=====================
It's a straight line, so you need 2 points.
y = (-2/3)x + 6
Pick any 2 values for x and find y.
Plot the 2 points.
Draw a line thru them.
