Write in Slope-Intercept Form x-3y>=6

$x - 3 y \geq 6$

Step 1

Solve for $y$ .

Subtract $x$ from both sides of the inequality.

$- 3 y \geq 6 - x$

Divide each term in $- 3 y \geq 6 - x$ by $- 3$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 3 y \geq 6 - x$ by $- 3$ . When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative value, flip the direction of the inequality sign.

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} \leq \frac{6}{- 3} + \frac{- x}{- 3}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} \leq \frac{6}{- 3} + \frac{- x}{- 3}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y \leq \frac{6}{- 3} + \frac{- x}{- 3}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Divide $6$ by $- 3$ .

$y \leq - 2 + \frac{- x}{- 3}$

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$y \leq - 2 + \frac{x}{3}$

Step 2

Rearrange terms.

$y \leq \frac{x}{3} - 2$

Step 3

Reorder terms.

$y \leq \frac{1}{3} x - 2$
