Question

Find the slope and y-intercept 4x+2y=-6

Answer 1

4x+2y=-6
2y = -4x - 6
  y = - 2x - 3
slope = -2
y-intercept when x = 0
so y = -3

answer
slope = -2
y-intercept (0,-3)

Answer 2

Hi and good morning from Canada!

In order to find the slope and the y-intercept of 4x+2y=-6, we need to put this equation in y=mx+b form. This is because m=the slope and b=the y-intercept of a linear function, which is what this equation is (since the degree of the equation is a 1).

4x+2y=-6
2y=-4x-6
y=-4/2x-6/2
y=-2x-3

Therefore the slope is equal to -2 and the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Hope this helps!
