1/3; 6


1/3; -6


-1/3; -6


1/3; -6

Answer 1

The general form of the equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The given equation is = -1/3 x - 6.

Comparing the given equation with the general form, we get

slope (m) = -1/3 and y-intercept = -6.

The answer is -1/3; -6
