Answer:

b = 1/3

Explanation:

The general structure of equations in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The given equation is already in slope-intercept form. In other words, you have already been given "m" and "b". Therefore, the value which corresponds with the y-intercept is (1/3).

f(x) = mx + b

f(x) = -(2/9)x + 1/3
