For this case we must indicate the graph of the following equation:


-6x-9y = 54

Adding 6x to both sides we have:


-9y = 54 + 6x

Dividing between -9 on both sides:


y = \frac {54} {-9} + \frac{6x} {-9}\\y = -6 - \frac {2} {3} x

For an equation of the form
y = mx + b, the slope is given by "m" and the point of intersection with the y axis is "b".

In this case we have that
b = -6 and
m = -\frac {2} {3}. The slope is negative. So, the corresponding graph is option A

Answer:

Option A
