linear equations can be presented in multiple ways, one in which is called standard form. An equation in standard form will look like Ax+By=C, where A, B and C are all integers. Given the equation 3x-9y=-18 using the equationyou should be able to easily find the x and y intercepts and then find the slope of this line

what equation

x intercept is where the line crosses the x axis or where y=0
y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis or where x=0

anyway
when a line is in form ax+by=c, the slope is -a/b

3x-9y=-18
slope=-3/-9=3/9=1/3


xint
y=0
3x=-18
x=-6
xint is x=-6

yint
x=0
-9y=-18
y=2
yint is y=2



slope=1/3
xint is x=-6
yint is y=2
