Answer:

b=2

Explanation:

Changing the y-intercept would move the graph down or up.

So we have the equation
y=(-2)/(3)x+5.

We want to move the graph down 3 units. We want the y-intercept to be 3 units lower than what is was. Since 5-3 is 2, then the new y-intercept is 2.

The equation would then be
y=(-2)/(3)x+2.

So b=2.
