The slope-intercept of a line is given by


y=mx+b

Where

"m" is the slope

and

"b" is the y-intercept

of the line.

The equation of the line given is


y=9x-5

Comparing this with the slope-intercept form of a line, we have:


\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=9x-5 \\ So, \\ m=9 \\ b=-5 \end{gathered}

Thus,

The slope is 9 and the y-intercept is -5
