Answer:

y =
(2)/(3) x -
(14)/(9)

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given the equation

6x - 9y = 14 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 9y = - 6x + 14 ( divide through by - 9 )


(-9)/(-9) y =
(-6)/(-9) x +
(14)/(-9) , that is

y =
(2)/(3) x -
(14)/(9) ← in slope- intercept form
