To convert the equation 5x - 3y = -9 into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.

 

Let's solve for y:

 

5x - 3y = -9

 

First, subtract 5x from both sides:

 

-3y = -5x - 9

 

Next, divide both sides by -3:

 

 

Therefore, the equation 5x - 3y = -9 can be written in slope-intercept form as
