Answer:

y = − 4/3x+3

Explanation:

4 x + 3 y = 9

Subtract

4 x from both sides.

3 y = − 4 x + 9

Divide both sides by 3

y=-4/3x+9/3

Simplify and you get y=-4/3x+3

Answer: y = −(4/3)x + 3.

Step-by-step explanation: 4x+3y=9 is the standard form for a linear equation. To convert the standard form to slope-intercept form, solve the standard form for y

4x+3y=9

Subtract 4x from both sides.

3y=−4x+9

Divide both sides by 3.

Answer: y = −(4/3)x + 3.
