How do you find the slope and y-intercept out of this equaiton? 5x + 3y = 9 Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b m is the slope {number in front of x} b is the y-intercept {number without a variable} 5x + 3y = 9 3y = -5x + 9 {subtracted 5x from both sides} y = (-5/3)x + 3 {divided both sides by 3} slope = - 5/3 y-intercept = 3 © Algebra House
