Answer:


\large\boxed{y=(9)/(8)x-(5)/(16)}

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:


y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation of a line in the standard form (Ax + By = C).

Convert it to the slope-intercept form:


18x-16y=5 subtract 18x from both sides

[tex[18x-18x-16y=-18x+5[/tex]


-16y=-18x+5 divide both sides by (-16)


(-16y)/(-16)=(-18x)/(-16)+(5)/(-16)\\\\y=(18:2)/(16:2)x-(5)/(16)\\\\y=(9)/(8)x-(5)/(16)

18x-16y=5
Subtract 18x from each side
-16y=-18x+5
Divide by -16
y=18/16x-5/16

y=9/8x-5/16 this one is with improper fractions
