That is incorrect from the beginning because 9 divided by 2 is not 3.  If you are putting that original equation into slope-intercept form you begin by subtracting 9x from both sides.  2y = -9x + 6.  Divide both sides by 2 and you have an equation solved for y:  [tex]y=- \frac{9}{2}x+3 [/tex].  That is slope-intercept form of the original equation, which is a line in standard form
