Explanation: The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. y = mx + b Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation. -y = 2 - 2x Multiply each term in -y = 2 - 2x by -1 (-y) . -1 = 2 . -1 + (-2x) . -1 Multiply (-y) . -1 Multiply -1 by -1 Multiply y by 1 y = 2 . -1 + (-2x) . -1 Simplify each term Multiply 2 by -1 y = -2 + (-2x) . -1 Multiply -1 by -2 y = -2 + 2x Reorder -2 and 2x y = 2x - 2
