Q. 6
3x - 2y = -14
2y = 3x + 14
Divide through by two
y = (3/2)x + 7

Slope = 3/2
y-intercept = (0, 7)

Q8
x + 5y =-15
5y = -x - 15
Divide through by 5
y= (-1/5)x -3
Slope = -1/5
y-intercept = (0,-3)

Slope intercept form of equation
y = mx + c
Where m = slope
c= y value of y-intercept
(0,c) = y-intercept
