    y = 1/3x - 4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve for y

    3x-9y = 36

    Subtract 3x

    3x - 3x-9y = - 3x + 36

    -9y = - 3x + 36

    Divide by - 9

    -9y/-9 = - 3x/-9 + 36/-9

    y = 1/3x - 4

    This is in slope intercept form (y = mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

    Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

    Solve for y:

    3x - 9y = 36

    ~Subtract 3x to both sides

    3x - 3x - 9y = 36 - 3x

    ~Simplify

    -9y = 36 - 3x

    ~Divide - 9 to both sides

    -9y/-9 = 36/-9 - 3x/-9

    ~Simplify

    y = - 4 + 1/3x

    Therefore, the answer is y = 1/3x - 4

    Best of Luck!
