Simplifying
9x + -3(x + 8) = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
9x + -3(8 + x) = 6x + -24
9x + (8 * -3 + x * -3) = 6x + -24
9x + (-24 + -3x) = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
-24 + 9x + -3x = 6x + -24
Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
-24 + 6x = 6x + -24
Reorder the terms:
-24 + 6x = -24 + 6x
Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
6x = 0 + 6x
6x = 6x
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
6x + -6x = 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
The slope is 2/3 and the y intercept is -3

i think this would be the right answer...
I believe that Mr.Scruggs got $225 for his birthday, if my math is correct of course. :) I hope this helps! Have a great day!
I think it is 6+2 I could be wrong
