Answer:

slope: -9 y-intercept: -6

Explanation:

the equation y = mx + b is the equation to find the slope and y intercept where m is the slope and b is the y intercept so change your equation to get y on one side so you would subtract 9x from both sides so it would then be y = -9x -6 where -9 is the slope and -6 is the y intercept

Y intercept:

Y=-6-9(0)
=-6

(0,-6)

I’m assuming the slope is the gradient if that’s the case then it would be -9 since
Y=mx+c
m is the gradient and in this case it’s -9
