Answer:
slope= -¾
[tex]y - intercept = 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
3x +4y= 9
Let's rewrite the equation into the form of y= mx +b (known as slope-intercept form), where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Keep the y term on the left-hand side of the equation and move all the other terms to the right-hand side.
4y= -3x +9
For the coefficient of y to be 1, divide both sides of the equation by 4.
[tex]y = - \frac{3}{4} x + \frac{9}{4} [/tex]
[tex]y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
[tex]slope = - \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
[tex]y - intercept = 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
