Answer:

y = 1/2x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

2x-4y = 16

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-4y-2x = -2x+16

-4y =-2x+16

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -2x/-4 +16/-4

y = 1/2x -4

The slope is 1/2 and the y intercept is -4

Step-by-step explanation:

$Let\ the\ brother's\ present\ age\ be\ x\\Hence\ we\ are\ given,\\His\ sister's\ present\ age=(2x)\\Now,\\The\ brother's\ age\ before\ two\ years=(x-2)\\The\ sister's\ age\ before\ two\ years=3(x-2)\\Also,\\His\ sisters\ age\ before\ two\ years=2x-2\\Hence,\\3(x-2)=2x-2\\3x-6=2x-2\\3x-2x=6-2\\x=4\\Hence,\\The\ brother's\ present\ age= 4\ years\\The\ sister's\ present\ age=2x=2*4=8\ years$
