Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"#
#"arrange "y+9x=-6" into this form"#
#"subtract 9x from both sides"#
#ycancel(+9x)cancel(-9x)=-9x-6#
#rArry=-9x-6larrcolor(blue)"in slope-intercept form"#
#"with slope m "=-9" and y-intercept, b"=-6#
