Answer:

The y-intercept is 6

Explanation:

First, you need to put this equation into slope intercept form, which is

y=mx+b

Take the 9x and subtract it, moving it to the other side of the equation. That will make the equation look like this:

y=9x+6

In the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So considering that 6 is in the b spot of the equation, 6 is the y-intercept

Hope this helps : )
