Answer

Slope = (-9/2)

y-intercept = (-3/2)

Step-by-step explanation

The slope and y-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given as

y = mx + b

where

y = y-coordinate of a point on the line.

m = slope of the line.

x = x-coordinate of the point on the line whose y-coordinate is y.

b = y-intercept of the line.

So, to answer this question, we will express the equation of the line given in this form.

-9x - 2y - 3 = 0

-2y = 9x + 3

Divide through by -2

(-2y/-2) = (9x/-2) + (3/-2)

y = (-9/2)x + (-3/2)

Hope this Helps!!!
