Answer: 3x-2y=24 in slope intercept form is
y=(2)/(3)x -12

The graph of the equation is in the attachment

Step-by-step explanation: Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

m is the slope b is the y-intercept x is the "input" in the equation y is the "output" or the y-value in the graph for a given x-value.

You need to rearrange the standard form to slope-intercept to isolate y on the left side of the equation.

3x - 2y = 24 Standard form. Subtract 3x from both sides.

-2y = -3x + 24 divide both sides by -2

-2y/-2 = -3x/-2 + 24/-2 . Simplify.

y = 3x/2 - 12 .

To clarify the slope as a fraction


y=(2)/(3)x -12
