8x + 3y = -9

this is becoming a serious problem. my math teacher CANNOT teach.

please help.

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{8}{3} x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.

You are given 8x + 3y = -9, so to convert this into slope-intercept form you would solve for y and rearrange the terms (if needed) to follow the format of mx + b.

Start by subtracting 8x from both sides of the equation.

3y = -9 - 8x

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y.

y = -3 - 8/3x

Rearrange the terms so the "x" variable is first.

y = -8/3x - 3
