y = (4/9)x - 3

===========

To convert the equation to slope-intercept form, we need to isolate the y-variable and express it in terms of x.

We can do this by rearranging the given equation.

  • 8x - 18y = 54

Start by subtracting 8x from both sides to isolate the y-term:

  • -18y = -8x + 54

Then, divide both sides by -18 to solve for y:

  • y = (8/18)x - 3

Simplify:

  • y = (4/9)x - 3

Therefore, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = (4/9)x - 3.
