Answer:

y=(9/2)x+18

Explanation:

Solve for y:

9x-2y=-36

Subtract 9x on both sides

-2y=-9x-36

Divide both sides by -2

y=(9/2)x+18

Answer:

y = 9/2 x +18

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

9x−2y=−36

We need to solve for y

Subtract 9x from each side

9x-9x−2y=-9x−36

-2y = -9x -36

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = -9x/-2 -36/-2

y = 9/2 x +18
