Slope Intercept Form: y= mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. notice this is not in y, intercept form so we have to rewrite it. 2x + 3y = 24 Subtract 2x from both sides your left with 3y = 24 - 3x now finally divide both sides by 3 your left with y = 8 - x or y = -x + 8 X-intercept = -1 Y-intercept= 8
