Write the equation of the line slope-intercept form (highlight%28y=mx%2Bb%29 where m=slope and (0,b)=y-intercept.) if the slope is 2/3 and (9,3) is a point on the line.
The formula you use when given a point and a slope and asked for the equation of the line is the point-slope formula: highlight%28y-y1=m%28x-x1%29%29 Where m=slope and the point you're given is (x1,y1).
Your slope is m=2/3 and your point (x1,y1)=(9,3)
y-3=%282%2F3%29%28x-9%29
y-3=2x%2F3-18%2F3
y-3=2x%2F3-6
y-3%2B3=2x%2F3-6%2B3
highlight%28y=2x%2F3-3%29
Happy Calculating!!!!
