Answer:

y = (-3/4)x - 9

Explanation:

Given equation,

→ 9x + 12y = -108

Now we have to,

→ convert into slope-intercept form.

Solving for the value of y,

→ 9x + 12y = -108

→ 12y = -9x - 108

→ y = (-9x - 108)/12

→ y = (-9/12)x - 9

→ y = (-3/4)x - 9

Hence, the form is y = (-3/4)x - 9.

Answer:

y = -3/4 x - 9

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

9x+ 12y = -108

Subtract 9x from each side

12y = -9x - 108

Divide by 12

12y/12 = -9x/12 -108/12

y = -9/12 x - 108/12

y = -3/4 x - 9
