9y - 4x + 36 = 0
9y - 4x = - 36
. . . . . . . divide all by - 36, make the right side = 1
-9y /36 + 4x/36 = 1
y/(-36/9) + x/(36/4) = 1
y / (-4) + x / (9) = 1
the intercepts are .. . x = 9 . . . & . . . y = - 4
the slope - solve for y
9y -4 x + 36 = 0 . . . . . . .transfer to the right
9y = 4x - 36 = 0 . . . divide by 9 . . let the y alone on the left
y = 4/9 x - 4 = 0
slope = 4/9 . . . it is the coefficient of x . . .
intercept in y-axis is -4

Hi, Your slope will be 4 over nine. Your y-intercept is -4. I will now explain why.
The main goal is to get Y by its slef. The way we do that is to take all of the terms on the side with the Y and move them to the other side. SO 36 is subtracted and the 4x is added to the side with the 0.
You are now left with: 9y= 4x-36
Now divide nine by everything.
You are left with y=4x/9 -4.
(-36/9 is -4)
Hope this helps.

First Solve for y
9y=4x-36
y=(4/9)x-4
This gives you notation where y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept
slope is 4/9
y-intercept is -4

9y+36-4x=0 add 4x to each side
9y+36=4x subtract 36 from each side
9y=4x-36 divide both sides by 9
y=4x/9-4
slope is 4/9; intercept is -4

Hello
You need to solve for y so we have
9y = 4x - 36 and then
y = 4/9x - 4
so the slope is 4/9 and the y-intercept is -4
Hope This Helps

9y+36-4x=0
9y = 4x - 36
y = (4/9)x - 4.
The gradient is 4/9, and the y intercept -4.

9y+36-4x=0
9y = 4x-36
y = (4/9)x -4
So m= 4/9 and b = -4 [m=slope and b = y-intercept]

you have to find y, and then the coeficient of x is the slope
y=(4x-36)/9
slope=4/9 and the y intercept -4.
