Question

How do you find the slope and y intercept for `x+2y=4`?

Answer 1

The slope intercept form for a linear equation is
`y = mx + b`
where `m` is the slope and `b` is the y-intercept.

Re-writing `x+2y =4`

`2y = -x + 4`

`y = (-1/2)x +2`
which is slope-intercept form
with slope `(-1/2)` and y-intercept `2`
