Find the slope and the yintercept of the equation 7x 9y 64

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the equation.

7x + 9y = 64

7x + 9y = 64

standard equation of line in slope intercept form is

y = mx + b

where, m is slope and b is y intercept

so writing the equation in slope intercept form

7x + 9y = 64

subtract 7x from both sides

9y = -7x + 64

divide both sides 9

y = - ( 7/9 ) x + 64 / 9

therefore, slope = -7/9

y intercept = 64/9
