Answer:


y \: = \: (2)/(13) x \: + \: (9)/(13)

Explanation:

we need to write it in the form y = mx + c where m is the slope(gradient) and y is the y intercept

1) add 9 to both sides

2x = 13y - 9

2x + 9 = 13y

2)divide 13 on both sides

2x + 9 = 13y

2/13x + 9/13 = y

final equation is


y \: = \: (2)/(13) x \: + \: (9)/(13)
