Ivy · Answer 1

The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

y - 6 = - 4 (x + 2) use distributive property

y - 6 = (-4) (x) + (-4) (2)

y - 6 = - 4x - 8 add 6 to both sides

y = - 4x - 2

m = - 4 - slope

b = - 2 - y-intercept

Elise Wilcox · Answer 2

Slope-intercept form is y=ax+b.

y-6=-4 (x+2)

Simplify

y-6=-4x-8

+6 both sides

y=-4x-2

The answer is y=-4x-2.
