A) Slope is $\frac { 9 } { 2 }$ and y-intercept is 0.
B) Slope is 9 and y-intercept is 2.
C) Slope is 9 and y-intercept is 0.
D) Slope is $\frac { 2 } { 9 }$ and y-intercept is 0.

To find the slope and y-intercept, the equation should be in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. For the equation 2y = 9x, dividing both sides by 2 gives y = (9/2)x, which means the slope is 9/2 and the y-intercept is 0 (since there is no constant term added to x).
