Answer

Slope(m) = 6/5 y - intercept = (0, -3)

Work Step by Step

The slope can be found by setting the equation equal to y, and following the y = mx + b format. y = 6/5x - 3. Now the equation is in that form, we can extract the slope,6/5, and plug in 0 for the x - value to find the intercept which is -3.
