Answer:

y = (-5/3)x + 3

Explanation:

slope intercept form: y = mx + b

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, add 9 to both sides:

3y - 9 (+9) = -5x (+9)

3y = -5x + 9

Next, divide 3 from both sides:

(3y)/3 = (-5x + 9)/3

y = (-5/3)x + 3

y = (-5/3)x + 3 is your answer.
