The problem is: Write and equation in slope intercept form for the line that satisfies the following conditions. Slope 7/3 and passes through (6, -15)

I got the answer:Y = 7/3x - 15 but found out this wasn't correct!
I got this answer by Y = Mx + B and then just filling it in.

Well, you made a mistake somewhere. If you cannot find your mistake, please show your work.

After substituting for y and x, you solved for b, yes?

-15 = (7/3)(6) + b

Check your arithmetic.
