How would you graph y = -4/9x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

When the equation of a line is given in slope-intercept form, as this one is, it is usually convenient to make use of those values (intercept and slope).

Here, the y-intercept is 6. The slope is -4/9, which means the line goes down 4 units for each 9 units to the right.

The y-intercept is graphed at (0, 6). An additional point can be graphed at (9, 2). Then the line can be drawn through these points.

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
