Question 359114: Find the slope and y intercept.
4x = 3y + 9
would I put this in the form y=mx+b. If that is what I would do. I believe that the slope would be -4. Is that correct? Or would it be 3 because the problem is in that form but the x and y are in different positions. I get a little confused with this. If you could be of some assistance I would appreciate it. And I believe the y intercept would be (0,3)? Or am I totally off. Thanks for your help! Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi,
Find the slope and y intercept of line 4x = 3y + 9
Yes! putting it in the slope intercept form y = mx + b is exactly right!proceed.
Solving for y
3y + 9 = 4x
3y = 4x - 9
y = (4/3)x - 3
m = (4/3) the slope
b = 3 line crosses the y axis at (0,-3)
