Question

What is the equation of the line x–3y=18 in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

x-3y=18
-3y=18-x
y=18/-3 -x/-3
y=-6+x/3

y=x/3-6

Slope= 1/3
y-intercept= -6

Answer 2

Answer:

Simple...

you have: x-3y=18

You want to convert it into slope-intercept form or y=mx+b form-->>>

x-3y=18

Isolate the variable-->>

x-3y=18

-x      -x

-3y=-x+18

Now simply divide...

-3y/-3  = -x+18/-3

y=1/3x=6

Thus, your answer.
