Write in y=mx+b Form 3X-2Y=6

$3 X - 2 Y = 6$

Step 1

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Step 2

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Subtract $3 X$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 2 Y = 6 - 3 X$

Divide each term in $- 2 Y = 6 - 3 X$ by $- 2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 2 Y = 6 - 3 X$ by $- 2$ .

$\frac{- 2 Y}{- 2} = \frac{6}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 X}{- 2}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 2 Y}{- 2} = \frac{6}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 X}{- 2}$

Divide $Y$ by $1$ .

$Y = \frac{6}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 X}{- 2}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Divide $6$ by $- 2$ .

$Y = - 3 + \frac{- 3 X}{- 2}$

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$Y = - 3 + \frac{3 X}{2}$

Write in $y = m x + b$ form.

Rearrange terms.

$Y = \frac{3 X}{2} - 3$

Reorder terms.

$Y = \frac{3}{2} X - 3$
