Answer

y=-$\frac{3}{2}$x+$\frac{3}{2}$ m=-$\frac{3}{2}$ y-intercept=$\frac{3}{2}$

Work Step by Step

First isolate y in the given equation. 3x+2y=3 3x-3x+2y=-3x+3 2y=-3x+3 $\frac{2y}{2}$=$\frac{-3x+3}{2}$ y=-$\frac{3}{2}$x+$\frac{3}{2}$ Now that the equation is in the form of y=mx+b you can see than m=-$\frac{3}{2}$ and y-intercept=$\frac{3}{2}$
