y = 4x/3 - 2/3

General slope-intercept form of a linear equation is as follows:
y = mx + b
Therefore, divide through by 3:
3y/3 = 4x/3 - 2/3
ANSWER: y = (4/3)x - 2/3
Where m=4/3 is the slope, b = -2/3 is the y-intercept,
since y = -2/3 when x=0.

The standard slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. So all you have to do to get this into slope-intercept form is divide everything by 3. Then you get:
3y/3 = 4x/3 - 2/3, which simplifies to:
y = (4/3)x - 2/3.

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
So, just divide everything by 3
y = 4/3 x -2/3

slope intercept form: (y = mx + b)
y = (4/3)x - 2/3
slope is 4/3
intercept is -2/3
intercept is where x=0
slope is (very important in economics anyway) the rate of change in y for every change in x.

Needs to be in the form y = mx + b
Divide both sides by 3 to eliminate the coefficient of y, leaving you with:
y = 4/3 x - 2/3

y= 4/3 x- 2/3 (y=mx+b)

it is already in slope intercept form... i'm in 8th grade and we are doing that in math now!!!

y=mx+b
so yes it is
