Answer:

(0,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 3y = -18

Solve for y to get equation in slope intercept form

( y = mx + b )

9x + 3y = -18

Subtract 9x from both sides

9x - 9x + 3y = -18 - 9x

3y = -9x - 18

Divide both sides by 3

3y/3 = y

-9x - 18 / 3 = -3x - 6

We're left with y = -3x - 6

The equation is now in y intercept form

y = mx + b where b = y intercept

-6 takes the spot of b therefore the y intercept would be at (0,-6)
