Slope is $-9$ , y-intercept is $0$ and x-intercept is $0$ .

$y= -9x or y = -9x +0$ ,

Comparing with general straight line equation $y=mx+c$
where $m$ is slope and $c$ is y-intercept, we get here slope as

$m =-9$ and y-intercept as $c=0$ So y-intercept is at $0,0$

To find x-intercept putting $y=0$ in the equation we find $x=0$ So x-intercept is also at $0,0$ graph{-9x [-40, 40, -20, 20]} [Ans]

How do you find the slope and intercept for y= -9xy= -9x?
