Answer:

y= -2/3x + 490

Explanation:

The slope intercept form is y=mx +b so we can make 2x + 3y= 1,470 into this equation.

2x + 3y= 1,470

3y= -2x + 1,470

y= -2/3x + 490

How to graph:

So, we can graph this by plotting 490 as the y-intercept (0, 490). Then, the slope would be -2/3 so this means a negative slope, down -2 and to the right 3. You can also plug the y= -2/3x + 490 into your calculator to find the graph!
